Resonance is supposed to be like finding your other half.

I'm not sure how that's going to work, considering that I already feel like I'm only half of who I'm supposed to be. I've lost my memories of Earth. I can only recall fragments of a rich cultural heritage that I want back more than I want to resonate.
