Twins

This weekend we went to Krispy Kreme and while there saw two twin girls at the age of 4. When I asked the mom if they were twins she lit up and said yes. I told her I was a twin as well. She lit up even more and started to ask about what it was like to be a twin.





 
One of the questions that struck me was, "Are you still close?" I wasn't sure what to answer. I simply said we are opposites, some times we can be close but other times we aren't. I said they will always be friends though.

It is hard to think that although I am a twin we are not inseparable. There is a movie about twins that made me cry when I saw it.  It is a comedy but it made me think... I was so much like Jack and she is so much like Jill. Yet, instead of seeing the great things in one another it seems like we always compare.

I do pray that one day we can be close. I am not sure when that may be, but I am willing to wait it out until we both are able to see what one another is capable of and not compare. This is not to be sappy or anything. I just simply want to state that I am a twin, twins with a beautiful girl.... I only wish she saw what I see.
