  • I have always immersed myself in the pursuit of knowledge and spiritual growth not just as complementary but deeply interconnected activities.

    I have always believed that the pursuit of knowledge and the quest for spiritual understanding are not just complementary but deeply interconnected. This belief has guided my academic and personal journey, leading me to immerse myself in intellectual activities such as reading, studying, and teaching, as well as spiritual practices like meditation and prayer. My passion for these pursuits is not just about personal growth; it’s about fostering a deeper connection with the world around me and contributing to it positively.

    Throughout my academic career, I have been driven by a relentless curiosity and a desire to understand the complex tapestry of human knowledge. This quest has led me to explore diverse subjects, from the sciences that explain the physical world to the humanities that delve into the human spirit. My commitment to education extends beyond my own learning. As a teacher, I have had the privilege of guiding others on their intellectual journeys, sharing insights, and, more importantly, learning from their perspectives and experiences.

    Meditation and prayer have been my anchors, providing me with a sense of inner peace and clarity that enhances my intellectual pursuits. These spiritual practices have taught me the importance of mindfulness, compassion, and resilience—qualities that I strive to incorporate into my teaching and personal interactions.

  • It is difficult to avoid superstitious behavior

    Are you superstitious?

    I make an effort to steer clear of superstitious behavior, yet it proves to be a challenging endeavor. This difficulty arises because superstitions are deeply entrenched within the fabric of cultural and religious traditions, transmitted across generations. Consequently, these beliefs tend to be adopted and practiced unquestioningly, forming a core component of my cultural identity.

  • A decent Homo sapiens

    Which animal would you compare yourself to and why?

    As Homo sapiens, the apex of simian evolution, I believe our existence on Earth is not by chance but a part of a divine, infinite plan. Our unparalleled cognitive abilities suggest a unique responsibility: to act as stewards of our planet and its myriad inhabitants.

  • I prefer not to be asked about my belief in God

    What is one question you hate to be asked? Explain.

    I prefer not to be asked about my belief in God because it’s a deeply personal topic for me, and I wish to avoid judgment or misunderstandings, maintaining my privacy on complex and sensitive matters. I cannot give a good answer before defining what God is and that is a point for a long philosophical discussion

  • After failing in politics I transitioned to the education sector

    How has a failure, or apparent failure, set you up for later success?

    Driven by a commitment to serve my country, I initially embarked on a political journey by joining a project and subsequently ascending to the role of Vice Minister of Finance. Despite the project’s alignment with progressive ideals, it unfortunately ended in failure, leading to the collective resignation of the government. In the aftermath, I transitioned to the education sector, where I found considerable success. This new path allowed me to make a significant and fulfilling contribution to the welfare of my people.
