Theme: Who Are We, and Where Does Our Worth Come From?
We live in a world where recognition often defines reality — followers, income, approval, validation. But if no one sees your light, does it still shine? Do other people need to give you money or confirm your value for you to actually *have* any?
This gathering invites an open, honest inquiry into the nature of **value, self, and being**. Together, we’ll ask:

> Who are we without external validation?
> Where does our sense of worth begin — in the eyes of others, or within ourselves?
> If no one praises, notices, or rewards us, do we still exist in fullness?

Following the Socratic tradition, we won’t seek conclusions but understanding — through thoughtful questioning, shared silence, and collective reflection.
**Format:**

* Opening reflection: “Who am I when nobody is looking?”
* Round of inquiry (each participant responds once before discussion opens)
* Group dialogue and philosophical exploration
* Closing insight or question to carry home

**Guiding questions:**

* What gives something (or someone) value?
* Is self-worth a feeling, a truth, or a social construct?
* Can we separate our identity from what others think of us?
* Who are *we* when the measures of success fall away?
