Man and The Stone | Ahmad Fahmy | TEDxZewailCityUST

Up a mountain and throughout eternity, the accursed Sisyphus continues to push a stone. We are all Sisyphus; We each have our stone. The philosopher Albert Camus wrote that “one must imagine Sisyphus happy”, but Ahmad Fahmy thinks otherwise. Ahmad Fahmy dropped his stone. Ahmad spent years upon years studying medicine. He rocked his education and earned excellent grades. And at 30 years, Ahmad Fahmy decided to turn everything around, follow his heart, and study philosophy. Ahmad is currently preparing a graduate degree in philosophy, studying the piano, and passionately passing on his philosophy knowledge to undergraduate students. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
