To make one, there must be two.

W.h. Auden
About This Quote

This is a story about two twin brothers who were born in the same moment, but spent their lives apart. One was rich while the other was poor. The rich brother always had everything while the poor brother was always struggling to get what he wanted. But, they both made one thing.

The rich brother bought his twin a plane ticket to see him for Christmas. He bought him a plane ticket to better his life. He bought him a plane ticket to be happy.

And he bought him a plane ticket to get back together with his brother again, because the friendship that started out over the phone after too many years apart, was still there. That’s what love can do. Love can give you a better life.

Love can give you the chance to make things right with someone you care about. Love can give you a chance to make up for past mistakes. Love can give you the opportunity to redeem yourself and become the person you wanted to be when you were young, before all of these things happened in your life.
