Part of what I do is encourage the opportunity to speak to someone new in order to understand oneself through a new lens, and opportunity to express themselves in new circumstances. I think that it is important to engage with new people to understand one’s personal perspective in a way that might not be challenged otherwise, or may have been repeatedly stifled. Sometimes we get used to being held back, or put into a certain role, and it can be hard to express oneself beyond that role. In this circumstance there may be an encouraging chance to step outside that role in a way that is gradual and gentle, so that someone can explore more parts of themselves than may be familiar. I cannot promise any particular protocol, but I intend to be creative and speculative. It is my hope as a person that value of these interactions comes predominantly from someone witnessing who they are. I hope that any opinions and discourse involved in someone exploring who they are or topics at end that it eventuates into them understanding more of themselves and applying that knowledge in their life to benefit themselves. When we can relate things to each other, as people in a society, I think we can benefit from a perspective that is not our own. I think we can also benefit from a profound wisdom of accepting when your perspective is of use to you, and specifically benefits you as someone who is different to other people. It depends on how cohesive, or independent, someone needs to be. The melting pot of cultures can be a confusing landscape, where neither complete acceptance of it nor complete rejection of it feels right. Sometimes, a contrasting perspective is exactly what we need to understand more of the landscape and how to position ourselves within it. Diversity is welcomed.
