Beyond conversations

Coming from a technical background and working in IT, I now find myself in a very different environment. In my new place, most people around me are PhD scholars, MSW or postgraduate students, and journalists. Every day feels like stepping into a space filled with deep thoughts, debates, and perspectives — each person trying to explain or defend their own ideology, truth, or version of reality.

I’m trying to understand it all — the truths, the differences, the common ground, the spiritual and humane aspects, and the moral consciousness that drives people. Sometimes it feels strange, awkward, or even frustrating. Other times, it opens new doors of thought — though some leave me feeling sad or unsettled.

I’m learning to grasp the scholarly approach, yet I also sense the social anxiety of being a citizen who often feels powerless, with only thoughts and conversations in a world clouded by political propaganda. Many discussions end without clear or satisfying answers.

Still, I keep searching, learning, and discussing — hoping to find meaning through these conversations and the minds around me.
