Chasing Bubbles_ The Importance of Curiosity | Nijar Ahmed | TEDxNibras Intl School Youth
In this imaginative and heartfelt TEDxYouth talk, Nijar Ahmed explores the wonder of curiosity and how it shapes who we become. Using the metaphor of "chasing bubbles," Nijar invites us to see life as an endless journey of exploration, where asking questions and seeking new experiences leads to growth, creativity, and deeper meaning. Her talk is a joyful reminder that curiosity isn’t just for children—it’s the spark that keeps us learning, dreaming, and truly living. Nijar Ahmed has always taken her position as a student as something more than just a temporary occupation; it is part of her identity – not just a student of NIS, but a student of life, taking pride in the lessons she learns every day. Her insatiable curiosity and passion for learning has given her a fresh perspective on her life’s purpose: pursuit of knowledge and new experiences. And not just any knowledge, but something that she can share and benefit from, a door to new opportunities. Ever since she was young, she had trouble defining her interests because of how varied they were. From art to food to reading, she had a new hobby every week, but even when she had finished one chapter and started the next, she always carried a new perspective she’d gained along with her to the next adventure.
