The art of conversation seems to be getting lost the more we use technology. It’s not very often that people have the chance to engage in a deep and meaningful conversation about what they think about life. A couple weeks ago, La Philomobile Philosopher Dominique Poulin stopped in the community to have random philosophical chats with people about whatever they wanted to talk about.
Poulin comes from Quebec and was on her way to Lethbridge, AB, and during her travels, she was stopping in various communities along the way and having conversations with people from the area.
“I love to travel, explore and observe, but mostly it’s because, like Simone Weil, I believe that there is only one reason for all humanity, and we become strangers and impenetrable to each other when we stray from it,” said Dominique Poulin. “Plus, in this age of polarization and isolation, there is such a need for public places where we can listen and learn from each other face to face.”
