People are always asking me about my travels and
conversations with interesting people around the world. I actively seek out
mentors and teachers to learn from along my journey. I also like to keep myself
educated with current events.
A perfect example of an informative evening was the
time I was fortunate enough to attend a presentation by Dr.
Zbigniew Brzezinski, former US National Security Advisor and
National Security Advisor to Barack Obama, to address us at a $500 dollar
per person event. Dr. Brzezinski was speaking for the Illuminismo
Series from the Fraser Institute on the evening of Monday
September 29th.
The Illuminismo Series invitation reveals the idea
has its roots in the Age of Reason and reflects the radical intellectual
upheaval of the 17th and 18th centuries when individuals, amidst newly emerging
freedoms, used reason and scientific approach to inquire into the nature of
knowledge.
The guests were invited by the Illuminismo
Co-Chairs Hassan and Nezhat Khosrowshahi. The series
has brought such speakers as Karl Rove, Richard Dawkins and Mark Steyn and
brought Afghanistan's Fawzia Koofi to Vancouver in 2011.
