great story austin. however i disagree with what you said about resonance, slightly. there are many instances where i resonate with stuff that says something i don't even want to be true. but it still resonates as true. and sometimes something that i want to be true just doesn't sound like it is. resonance is just a word and therefore subject to the semantic interpretations of the individual.
i think it's more about what you don't resonate with you're supposed to discard. because if it is true you're not ready for it, and if it isn't then it isn't. and if you do resonate something that doesn't mean it's true but if it serves you to think so then who are they to take that from you? i used to read Sheldan Nidle and during that time i needed it. when i stopped believing in Sheldan i was still grateful for the material for getting me through things. now i dunno what i believe about Sheldan but it taught me something about resonance indeed.
