The ramblings of a pseudointellectal…or a genuine idiot?

Mirror Mirror?

Two peas in a pod? Amy Khvitia (L) and Ano Sartania (R).

A BBC World Service report on the alleged historical sale of babies in Georgia, and familial reunion through social media, is headed by this photo of identical twins, separated at birth.

The first thought that came to my mind, however, was if it weren't for the fact that I'd been told they're identical, I'd never have guessed.


Flippancy aside, I found this rather touching:

"I always felt like there was something or someone missing in my life," says Ano. "I used to dream about a little girl in black who would follow me around and ask me about my day." That feeling disappeared when she found Amy.

Twins, particularly identical twins, have a special bond that the rest of us simply cannot fathom. They now have the other half of themselves.

The article was later updated—stealthily, naturally—with video, in case you thought my original post made even less sense than usual.
