It is never a good idea to compare yourself to another people. It is self-destructing! But what if I have to compare myself to my another self, someone who does not really exist, but someone who I think my other self. Well, I guess that is a pretty interesting topic, right? So at the end of this post, I will have to determine who is the better version. Is it me or my other selves who I want to refer as my doppelgangers.
My Doppelgangers Vs. Myself Weekend-Engagement 147
My doppelganger is someone who is very athletic and sporty. He is someone who plays basketball really well because he got the height above average of a typical Filipino. He gets pretty good attention from girls who cheers everytime he makes a three-point shot, does a solid rebound, and steals the ball of his opponent. He is physically sexy and muscular. He is not just an MVP in the court but as well as an MVP to many pretty and sexy girls.
While I am someone who does not engage in any physical sport, but someone who only plays scrabble, chess and some card games. My muscles are not very defined because they only carry workloads as a teacher and some heavy tasks done during childhood. So absolutely, no pretty girls cheering for me in the court.
However, I do not envy the attention given to my athletic doppelganger. I am pretty amazing in my own way, I get to make so many young people happy, girls and boys, every graduation ceremony I attend to because of my services as a passionate and effective teacher. I have a muscular brain, strong heart, and hardworking hands that are very functional in my everyday life in order for me to do my responsibilities and commitments. And in reality, I am very much satisfied of the attention I get from my beautiful wife. That alone, is already a victory!
Doppelganger = 0, Myself= 1
My doppelganger is a rich guy, a business man, a busy man. He attends business meetings every now and then and he engages to parties with his business partners and investors. He does all these things to keep his position and status in the society. Unfortunately, he goes home very late at night and so his whole family is already sleeping.
While there is a real me who works together with my wife, we have breakfast, lunch, and dinner together, we watch movies and play mobile games together, and we sleep beside each other after each singke day. I do not have all the money and the material things but I get to spend the most luxurious element in this world - TIME with my wife.
I may not have the things that I want in life, but I have all the things that I need and for me, that what makes this life enough and complete. I am content of all this but still strive to achieve my goals for myself and my family
Doppelganger - 0; Myself - 2
Certainly, I am a better and a sexier version of myself. I am content of what I have now but that does not mean I do not do things that would make me grow and prosper. I am just grateful as of the moment and proud of who I am becoming to be.
