Twelve Selves

   It's not easy to understand.

   You know how some people have multiple personality disorder? It's kind of like that, except I'm not one person with multiple personalities... I'm 12 people with 12 different personalities. I sort of hop around between myself. They're all me, I don't take over someone elses body.  Each me is in a different dimension. Every one but the one I am presently is in a frozen state until I switch. You could say I'm the catalyst to make the worlds move.

   I can't control it, I'll live days, weeks, months as one then switch to another while sleeping, sitting in school or mid sentence. It takes a bit after switching to realize I have, but I know I do. All the memories from my other lives are foggy, but there. Even though each one of me is different, my soul is the same.

   I literally have 12 personalities. I envy my other selves, respect my other selves, pity my other selves, annoy my other selves, fear my other selves, love my other selves, I even hate my other selves. It would be bad, I think, if some of me met some other me. It's easy enough to ignore someone who doesn't exist in the current world though, most of the time.

   The 12 worlds are all very different. They're not all an average earth. Each one has it's own quirk, it's own appeal. Though I like some more than others the fact that I can even be in more than one world is amazing. It's incredible and beyond comprehension that I have this power. Not one version of me can believe it. We all think we're crazy.

   You think I'd be able to empathize with people,  seeing 12 different perspectives, but it's hard to empathize with someone you innately dislike. You can't like everyone. That's one of the predictable facts about humanity. I'm a lot nicer about it in certain versions of me but I still can't stand some people. So don't think I have understanding beyond human capibility.

   If I've learned anything it's that we can't help be who we are, when we are or who we are in my case.
