Where We Find: A Space for Slow Thought in a Fast World.
Where Do We Find Ourselves?
How do we find our path when the old ways fall away and the next step is unclear—when the maps we were given no longer fit the terrain?
We live in a culture obsessed with power and efficiency, with hitting targets, measuring success, and mastering our environment. We are taught that freedom means independence: unchaining ourselves from the influence of others to find a solitary, “authentic” core. But does this relentless pursuit of control actually bring clarity? Or does it leave us in a state of anxious isolation, wondering why the more we “achieve,” the more we feel adrift?
What if there is another way to find our path, and a place we can call home?
This is an invitation to trade the myth of mastery for a more humble outlook—one that begins by realizing where it is we stand, and among whom. This isn’t a about life-hacks or easy answers; it is a place for slow thought in a fast world. Drawing on the insights of Eastern thought, particularly Daoism, we explore what it means to be part and parcel of our environment, to stand in the midst of the world rather than lording over it from a distance.
Where We Find is an inquiry into the thickness of our day-to-day experience, seeking a sense of connection and a deeper way of inhabiting the path we are on. It is an invitation to choose wonder over certainty and attunement over control; to harken to the quiet depth of the everyday—trading the brittle hubris of certainty for the fertile grounding of an open question.
Can we find a sense of home, not in a final destination, but in the very journey itself? I invite you to explore these questions with me—to open toward deeper relationships and a way of being truly connected to the world in which we are found.
About Me
Hi! I’m Yuval Goldfus.
I hold a PhD in philosophy and have spent the last fifteen years teaching Comparative Philosophy (East-West) in a variety of settings. Throughout that same period, I have also pursued a career as a programmer in various capacities. Where We Find is the bridge between these two worlds. It is an invitation to explore how ancient wisdom—particularly Eastern thought—can be lived and practiced within the practical flow of our modern lives and work.
