About Me

CURRENT MISSION

mediatizing my interests and trying to find a center

ABOUT ME

they say i am an interesting guy but actually it depends on the mood. Honestly, most of time i feel confused about "all" in the universe. i don't like fixed, rigid and complex ideas. ı think our contemplation about life should be simple, playful, and "communicable".
I do like to talk and ask about everything that makes me wonder! Listening is a great teacher, I believe. Living in "modern" world, we achieve lots of developments in technology and materiality but we are not successful in sharing life. I agree with Charlie Chaplin that in his best movie The Great Dictotars he says
"More than machinery, we need humanity. More than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life would be violent and would be lost."

PHILOSOPHY

if the secret of the universe is "sharing" how should we adapt our being in favour of this "supreme order"?

"...to take an immediate interest in the beauties of nature...is always the sign of a good soul." Kant

"Sen güzel hikayelerle hikayelen! Zira insanlar hikayeden ibarettir!", Mevlana Celaleddin Rumi

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ones upon a time when i was younger and brave as a lion, i travelled to the North coast of Turkey one of my friend(i mean 5 years ago :). We were travelling by hitchhiking. the last day of our trip we get on a vehicle lifting a crushed car. There was no place inside the lifting vehicle, so we pick up to the backside, travelling like 60 km with a 100 km speed. It was an extraordinary experience that i ever have. We were almost die because.

Teach, Learn, Share

can teach: turkish, presentation skills, communication skills, little workshops on acting, how to make jokes :D
