Just like the Truman Show, Olivia’s life has been extremely entertaining to sit back and watch every single step of the way. As we grew up, we began to go down different paths but had the same strength in foundation which is why I can relate to Olivia and am constantly inspired to watch her grow into the dopest person I know. However, this weakness of mine within our relationship growing up has become the strongest part of what holds us together today and the reason for why Olivia is truly my best friend. I thanked God that I was a fraternal twin because I couldn't even begin to imagine looking identical to someone on top of sharing every single personality trait with them. Whether it was going to the same swim practice, the same guitar practice, the same concert, listening to the same music, participating in the same classes with the same teachers, you name it.

The stereotypical “package deal” concept of twins is what threw me off, it was never Olivia. From self reflection years later during my 200 hour yoga teacher training, I discovered so many things within myself that I never knew, such as my driving need to be independent. I later came to find out it was nothing against Olivia, instead it was everything to do with me. I constantly questioned “Why would anyone want to be one in the same?” That’s something I really struggled with and took years to rationalize. I was genuinely so confused whenever anyone told me that because of the fixed mindset I had against being a twin.

I never spoke on that much until recently because for one, I never really knew why and also, because so many people raved to me as a child about how they would kill to be a twin. Growing up, I actually hated the idea of being a twin.
