We Are One
We all have a deep-rooted human need for connection with others (even those of us on the introverted side), which many people practice through mindfulness and spirituality. We search for ourselves in other people and our surroundings to develop a deeper understanding of who we are and where our strengths and weaknesses lie.
We’re all for becoming one with the universe and everyone in it, but u/elee0228 took this concept too literally as a fetus and resorbed his twin in utero. He’s not the only one either. A 1995 study discovered that up to one in eight pregnancies involving multiples endure Vanishing Twin Syndrome, with many going undetected because the twin is resorbed before the first ultrasound.
