"It is hardly possible to overrate the value... of placing human beings in contact with persons dissimilar to themselves, with modes of thought and action unlike those with which they are familiar.” —John Stuart Mill
Above all, nurture insightful conversations with people with different backgrounds and mindsets.
The sessions are also part of a larger project, called Fixed to Flow, aimed at empowering people to reinvent themselves, and continuously adapt to the fast-paced world we live in.
In our dinner, we'll discuss modern relationships. We'll explore the nuanced interplay between love, intimacy, and personal fulfillment in our society's evolving nature of romantic connections.
Our conversation aims to uncover the complexities behind these choices, examining how they mirror our deeper desires and fears in love and connection. We'll also consider how sometimes relationships transcend romantic boundaries, including friendship and community, adding layers of support, understanding, and connection.
We'll explore the concept of love as a skill. This perspective invites us to see romantic involvements not merely as impulsive feelings but as capabilities that can be nurtured and honed. This view illuminates how our approach to love can potentially impact experiences of loneliness and depression. It offers insights into how cultivating this skill can lead to more profound and meaningful relationships.
This dinner is more than a gathering; it's an invitation to engage in a shared journey toward understanding the art of relationships in today's world. It promises to be an evening of personal stories, theoretical insights, and an exploration into the deeper aspects of human connections and the art of love.
