Doppelganger: My Shadow Self -The other and me

When another voice appears inside you telling you what to do, do you accept it all at once, or do you argue with that voice? I then visualized the process as a game on a chessboard and used two colors to distinguish the different voices. The blue one was her, the one who advised me not to cross that bottom line, and the one who compelled me to cross that bottom line. She was the god who advised me and the devil who tempted me, and at the same time, she was the inseparable other me.

In my isolated inner world, there is an empty room that belongs to me, which over time, has grown flowers, trees and curtains to shield me from the outside world's gaze. I was playing chess with my alter ego, who often disagreed with me and whose conflicting ideas were like a game on a chessboard. Most of the time, though, we were friendly and made a pact not to step outside the room.
