Welcome to the Quiet
I started this journal as I entered what you might call a quieter phase of life — not quiet in the sense of slowing down, but in the sense of tuning in more deeply to what matters.
These days are still full: of creative work, ideas, personal projects, and a focus on wellbeing. But I’m no longer chasing money, mindshare, or someone else’s definition of success.
I’m here to reflect — to write things down while I still can. If something I share helps you along the way, I’m glad. But this space isn’t about building a following. It’s about reconnecting with what feels real, lasting, and quietly worthwhile.
Latest Reflections
Your Truth, My Truth, No Truth?
In a world drowning in half-truths and curated realities, can we still agree on what’s true—or does truth even matter anymore?
This post explores how truth has shifted from a shared foundation to a contested battleground. From ancient faith to modern politics, from Nietzsche’s “truth as illusion” to Foucault’s “truth as power,” we examine how belief, influence, and technology have turned truth into a moving target.
If we want to stay grounded in an age of spin, outrage, and viral manipulation, we need to stop asking only “Is this true?”—and start asking “Who benefits if I believe it?”
Freedom in a World of Algorithms
Are you really making free choices — or just following invisible nudges? This piece explores how modern power doesn’t restrict us but subtly shapes us through algorithms, feeds, and endless distractions. Drawing on Rousseau, Berlin, Foucault, and Sartre, it asks: in a world designed to predict and guide our behaviour, is freedom still possible?
Stay curious. Question the feed. Real freedom begins when we choose to think beyond what’s handed to us.
