IMAGINE GETTING UP WITH A WORLD OF SIMILAR FACES!





We've all done a double-take when mistaking a random person on the street for someone we know or know of, like the celebrity look-alikes Jessica Chastain and Bryce Dallas Howard.

Imagine it's a beautiful day you wake up. Unlike other days it's very quiet and you decide to take a walk outside. You find people around, busy with their work. But then you suddenly notice; they all look the same. With identical skin and hair colour, when you look closer, even their faces are similar. You realise that you jumped into a world filled with identical humans. Let's imagine how it would be to sojourn in a world like it! It's just like a factory produces humans in the same way dolls are manufactured. Small difference dolls are been packaged, unlike humans. Isn't it alluring that these identical creatures would come into the world ordinarily, but they won't be given a name, rather would be analyzed through numbers? 

As in our world, our names and surnames help in identifying us. Also, our date of birth and of course our faces makes us different from the rest. Getting back to the identical face world, this won't be desirable. Here the assigned numbers would be their identity. Let's see how the process of assigning numbers would work. Every time an individual would be born the government would enter their presence into the computers, to keep one's record and accordingly, the number would be assigned. Identifying friends and family gets challenging. The disadvantage for the following life would be they won't get to play hide-n-seek, social life would be difficult, no beauty pageants and a lot. Let's focus on how the social life would be? 

In our world, everyone seems to be obsessed with their looks. So people try experimenting with their body too plus their looks. But in the world of similar faces, everyone looks the same. They least care about their beauty. Their accounts on social media won't be based on photos but intelligence. You see, in this world, only your achievements and character could make you different. The biggest advantage would be, bullying won't exist. We humans like to label those who have a different appearance. We categorize individuals on their characteristics. While in another world you can't make fun of someone; it's as if you are making fun of yourself. Creativity in that world gets limited. It gets difficult to imagine something different when you are exposed to the same stimuli. Even dating life wouldn't be successful as to identify your own loved one would be impossible. They don't have a sense of individuality. This all makes us realize that this perfect society wouldn't exist for long. People would get desperate day by day about having a unique identity. Concluding, if everyone looked the same, it might solve a lot of problems, but would also create a new one. Intelligence might get successful but creativity would lead the other path.
