Sixth birthday. Farrell's Ice Cream Parlour, Portland, 1973.
Last month was my birthday. Our birthday. I am one of the lucky ones in the world who has a twin. She was my wombmate and is my forever best friend. The person who laughs at the same things I do (however inappropriate). The person I can tell anything. The person who always tells me the truth. The person who supports me no matter what. The person I have always looked up to - who was always a little more adventurous than I, a little less shy than I, and a little more level-headed than I. The person who opens up new worlds to me, who I am always learning from. The person I love dearly and miss deeply when we are apart. (The person I will live close to someday!)
The person who simply understands...whatever it is. ♥
