Title: Dreamer of the new

Gender: Male

Age: 34

Sun Sign: Gemini

Chinese Sign: Wood Rabbit

Location: Broomfield, CO

About Me:

Philengineer (philosopher-engineer).

Learning resonance, gradually..

“Let the beauty we love be what we do.” -Rumi

Resonance:

Something positively amazing
you keep coming back to
and it feels just as amazing each time you do

Golden Moments, when the world paused
Electric Jolts, when you said that divine Yes
Signs, Times, when you knew, This was for you

Cherish them, rediscover them
they're hints, they're clues
the only ones we'll get

“Sometimes the truth of a thing is not so much in the think of it, as in the feel of it.”  -Kubrick


It's Simple:

Love = Deep Connection with a Human
Resonance = Deep Connection with an element of Life

Your Loves = Your Love + Your Resonances

Resonance is even deeper than love
It is the only Love that lasts, that outlives us


Have More Resonance:

  • Do not multitask
  • Step back from your single action when you feel a sense
    • A nudge, a break in the flow, a light whisper of subconscious

  • Never ignore a sense
    • If a sense asks you to move, abide it
      • Towards someone or into your own space
      • Promenade (philosophical walking) often draws it out
    • Let your mind be pulled into a 'soft cloud'
    • Let the foreground become the background
    • Listen with your brain - by relaxing while letting the sense tickle your mind
  • Let the image, thought, or realization come
    • Do this by 'insisting' that it does

  • Every sense can be 'worded' - Use your words to draw them out
    • Use words that resonate with you, if they apply
    • Often it will require a couple tries to get the right wording
    • When the right words are found, the sense will dissipate

  • Never lose a sense
    • Keep your recorded senses on a canvas
    • Whatever canvas suits it best, or is most handy

  • When lacking for inspiration
    • Look back to your canvases
    • Color them: red = hot, orange = strong, yellow = mild, green = missing something, blue = what?
      • Or your favorite color scheme
    • Start to gather your reds in one place
      • Your profile here, if it feels right

  •  What is Resonance?
    • Those things that remain 'red', year after year after year
    • Ignore them not - they are the only clues we get in this life


“I get up every morning determined to both change the world and to have one hell of a good time. Sometimes, this makes planning my day difficult.” -E.B. White
