And in my professional opinion the best way to use Twitter is to tell people what’s on your Tumblr. I don’t know if there’s another use for Twitter, really, than to be like, Look! Look what I Tumbled about today!” —

Donostia (Spain) May 14 2013.- Having spent together in the maternal womb nine months of pregnancy, but separated for their respective amniotic sacs, the first thing that made the two twins at birth was holding hands. Nine month together, so close and so apart, too much time unable to touch each other. The action of the babes did soften the whole hospital and their parents more than anyone.The lady doctor who took care of childbirth who said it was not a random act but “a reflex action to survive.” “It seems a lovely gesture to remember,” she added.The tender image of Daniel and Maria, together hand in hand from the first moment of their lives is touring the world and stirring up everyone.
