HalfnHalf

O
ne part yourself and one part of another person. Twins are interesting creatures, never quite alone, never quite complete without the other yet born to be your own person. It poses an interesting predicament as a twin who is part of the entity of twinship in tandem, plural. 

To learn how to get along in life with or without a twin is to go beyond comfort zones. To have the courage and confidence in your own ability to learn lessons gently and not so gently as your sidekick, partner in crime, wing man, may or may not be there on the ready if need be, scary stuff.

It is an interesting push pull type thing growing up when you miss your "wombmate" at times, all for having the twin around in one moment then you need your own space and some sort of autonomy. Perhaps neither need nor want anything to do with each other. The growing pains of growing apart yet holding on to the special nature of the twin connection is unique and something mostly understood by twins. The half you, half me, halfnhalf thing, remain. I will always feel like I am a twin even though you have transcended into your heavenly place. I know a big part of you, your big spirit and goodness is present. It is always powerful and precious when whispers from Heaven as soft, subtle and fun as a butterfly fluttering his wings, comes around.
