    Many people, at some point in their lives, wish for a twin brother or sister, but they don’t truly understand the difficulties and bond of having a life-long partner. Many twins have trouble identifying themselves as a single person. People they know and love compare the twins, often with drastic results; however, through it all, twins usually have such a close bond that it lasts through the ages. For singletons, it can be challenging to recognize the tight bond twins have, the struggle of comparison, and grasp a twin’s loose hold on his or her identity. Consequently, a lot of twins struggle to establish themselves; however, a twin’s perspective of identity is completely different from that of singletons.…

    Another reason is you could have someone to play with, so I will never be bored. I would play sports, read books, tell scary stories, tell jokes, and laugh with each other. Next, I would have someone there to stick up for me and also have someone to talk to when I’m mad, sad, or just need someone there. For an example, when you are struggling at school or getting bullied my twin would be there for me to…

    As I was the only girl out of three children in my family and also the youngest I always saw my eldest brother as role model to me.

    What Make Me Unique

    • 403 Words
    • 2 Pages

    When I was younger, I was often asked by teachers to, "Describe yourself in one word". But the thing about identity is that it cannot be surmised in just one word. I found it difficult to chose one word then, and I find it even more impossible to do so now. By choosing only a single part of myself to acknowledge, I disregard the parts of myself that make me who I am, the parts that make me unique. My identity has an infinite amount of layers to it, which keep adding to itself the more I grow.…

    Ultimately, who knows what kinds of experiences I’ll go through in the future to figure out my likes/dislikes. Middle school was indeed one of my developing years that was horrible yet very pleasing in terms of finding my identity. Moreover, high school is where I found my freedom; where I can express myself in whatever manner i’d like. I’m not entirely sure what the future holds for me nor, do I know how bumpy the road is going to be. What I do know is somewhere throughout that road, I’m going to find out my true identity.…

    Rarely in life do people stop, reflect, and think about who they really are. Describing oneself, something that many assume would be a simple task, is, in all honesty, quite strenuous. When contemplating ones identity, people simply believe that they are themselves, the person that they have been their entire life. Going through the college application process, I was dumbfounded as to how I would prove to admissions officers that I was more than just data and statistics. I asked myself many questions during this thought.…

    Your Personal Identity (Know Yourself) I think the way in which we refer to ourselves reveals a tremendous amount about our self-image, and whether we see ourselves as Victims or as Navigators. Navigators normally refer to themselves in professional and highly positive terms, no matter what their current employment status may be. To illustrate this: Think about someone you have known who lost a job and spent some time before gaining new employment.…

    When I was 14 years old, I realized my sister and I were indeed twins. It wasn't until after my mother's stroke that I realized how much we had in common. We grew extremely close and quite inseparable after realizing we had nobody but each other. Walking into a new school with nobody to call a friend, I looked to my sister as the only friend I had and she was there for me every step of the way.
