Throwback to 2015! I was interning at the United Nations Headquarters in New York, and looking back at that youthful snapshot makes me smile 😊. Time really flies, but those moments of meeting incredible people from all corners of the globe remain unforgettable.
Each day, I experienced firsthand how diverse nationalities and beliefs could come together with kindness and respect—much like the vibrant festivals celebrated in South and Southeast Asia. Our differences not only make us unique but also build the foundation for a more connected, tech-driven world where cultural harmony is key.
The iconic "Non-Violence" statue, or "The Knotted Gun," standing proudly in front of the UN, powerfully symbolizes the global rejection of violence and the yearning for peace. In our fast-paced digital age, this reminder of unity and respect still resonates, inspiring us to champion a future of collaboration and empathy.
As we scroll through our feeds and navigate modern trends, let this memory inspire us to appreciate our shared humanity. Stay passionate, stay united, and keep spreading that peace vibe! ✨
