An alter ego (Latin, “the other I”) (disguised) is a second self, which is believed to be distinct from a person’s normal or original personality. A person who has an alter ego is said to lead a double life.

In many ways, Second Life itself is a means to providing all of us with an Alter Ego… a chance to express different parts of our personality in the way we interact with others. Perhaps you are more outgoing online, maybe thinner, or a blonde instead of a brunette, maybe you live as a child avatar or a furry, or you are Gorean slave master with a harem of women…or maybe your avatar is the complete opposite gender than you are in your first life. No matter who you choose to “be” in SL… the beauty is there are no rules. I live my SL each day how I wish to live it. I change my hair color, I change my size, I change my style from dark and emo to whimsical and fun. Sometimes I’m a vampire, sometimes a fairy, sometimes I’m a nudist (some people call that lazy). Honestly, I enjoy trying out all the possibilities. I don’t want to be limited to a nicely packaged box. I don’t want to be predictable. Real life is limiting enough.
This month’s special Anniversary Collabor88 event is coming to a close soon but if you like anything to do with greek or roman mythology especially pertaining to fashion or home decor… there is plenty to be had. Get on over to check it out. With the exception of a few tidbits, all items pictured are from the event. Both of my alter egos are featuring Belleza‘s beautiful new skin “Grace” that comes in 2 skin tones (medium and tan) and 10 different makeup options… in addition I snuck in a new item from GizzA – the ‘epaulet’ which comes in an amazing array of colors and metal options.
So don’t hold back.. be who you want to be. Show your light and show your dark. Variety is the spice of life!
