What would I do if I met myself in an alternate universe?

Meeting Myself In An Alternate Universe

Some of you may be aware of parallel universes such as the multiverse in the DC comics or even the war against the two worlds in the television series, Fringe, but what about the parallel universes in our world. It is speculated that our world is not the only one. When I say world, I mean universe if I'm not making myself clear. There is speculation that there are an unlimited amount of universes and in each one, anything can happen. For example in this world, September 11, 2001, the Twin Towers were attacked and destroyed while that same day in another universe it was just a typical day at the office. This is just a simple example that is a good size in comparison, but it could be as different as one person wearing a different colored shirt. The possibilities are endless and vary on a massive scale.

So if you thought of something to happen in an alternate universe, what would it be? Would you Earth to have three moons instead of one? Would you wonder what your doppelganger picked as their major? Or would you maybe wonder if you even exist in another universe. That can happen to which leads me to another series of thoughts. What am I like in other universes? Do I exist? Am I athletic in another universe? Am I a killer in another universe. All of these questions are odd and somewhat funny but I already know the answer to all of these questions. There are an unlimited amount of universes to where anything can happen within them. So of course in another universe I'm a quarterback on a football team and serial killer in another. All of these possibilities are happening, will happen or have happened.

Its exciting to think about what my alternate selves would look like. It be very interesting if we all met up and talked about our lives. We could share the similarities and differences of our lives. We wouldn't have to keep secrets because we are talking to ourselves and we would get jokes that others wouldn't get. I can see us hanging out and having fun with each. Each version of me would have something different with them varying in scale. We would all still be similar at a core level. Its really interesting to think about. The closest thing we could experience this is through twins. Twins have a duplicate of themselves right next to them. I have always wondered what it would be like if I had a twin. Maybe one day I will meet a twin.

If I do ever meet my twin, I will be very surprised. I wouldn't know what to say or even think. It would be very interesting situation. Just imagine if an alternate you would be your best friend. If you had similar lives and experience similar things then your lives should be similar. Some of those differences do carry some weight to them. My double and I would be different but similar. That is why we have so many alternate universes. Its amazing what they could hold and who could be in them. Who knows, maybe one day you will meet you double. If so, what would you ask them?

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
