I have always been sensitive to this other "reality" and find it difficult to talk about it to the majority of people I know, because if you haven't experienced it it is extremely hard to relate to it. I can understand your skepticism, and I also have no time for charlatans, because I know what the "real" experience is like.

Thanks very much for sharing it with us.

There is a lot more that I could say, and it has taken me a couple of days already to say this, because I wanted to acknowledge your experiences and your courage in sharing them, but my first response was one of elation that you now know a little about the complexities of life from this perspective.

The best thing that I think I can tell you is to hold onto your skepticism - a healthy skepticism, that is - and evaluate every experience, and then value the ones which stand up to your scrutiny.
