There a strange mith all over the world, that there is atleast someone who looks just like us. True, when I see look back at myself I see someone who used to look like me, but who isn’t me.
For all reasons, call it evolution, growing up or changing lifestyle I have changed in many ways, so much like everyone of us. I do not take decisions with a flip of a coin, I think so much before taking a decision that I often forget what Istarted with. My decision is based on so many permutations and parameters than at the end none get balanced. Have I really evolved, can I name this ‘Experience’.
Growing up has diluted the dreams, complicated the life and this we call maturity. In essence we have becomes our own doppelgangers. We look the same, but we have become so different personalities that its hard for ourselves to identify our old alter ego.
Life does play strange games, everyone would be amused to see someone who just looks us, our alter self, our ‘Doppelganger’. If we roll back time and look back at ourselves we would sure be amused and amazed to see what we have become. We have become our own doppelgangers.
Thinking whether this is good or bad, would only makes us philosophers. Let assume that nature and life works this way. Lets give a mystery laugh and keep creating our own doppelgangers.
