I am YOU – your Twin Sister



I am YOU – your Twin Sister
By Twin Sister Shadow
October 5, 2015

I am you – hidden
I am you – waiting to be revealed
I am you in the light of the sun
I am you – imitating you, mirroring you.

Do you see me?
Do you like me?
The sun, in its greatness
Wills to cast me in all creation under it.
But do they appreciate me shadowing them?
Oftentimes, they don’t. Oftentimes you don’t.

Maybe because you’re the one hit by its burning heat,
You’re the one scorched and then what you see after
Is me of you, not the lighted, shining you.
You get disappointed because what you see is someone unknown –
With features hidden and beauty concealed
You fear, judge, ignore or simply turn away your gaze from me.

But you see, I’m not bitter.
Because I’m valued better by the other.
The other – who finds rest and comfort
In me, from you – my Twin Sister.

Yes, I am you equally.
With an exquisite beauty we share distinctly.
We are both loved by God totally, wholly
Tangible and intangible missionaries –
Together we exercise availability.

My dear Twin Sister,
Let us live and work together.
Under the LIGHT – of the Sun, of the Moon, of the Stars…
You shine with empowering presence,
As I show with comforting presence.
See? Together we are God’s presence!
