Join Mensa

The world was a hostile territory. In order to preserve my human relationships, I had to wear a mask of courtesy. Still, under this mask, I was alone. Alone and lonely. I wanted to get rid of this mask; I was looking for an environment where people can understand me. And at the end, the people I found in Mensa tamed me: they made me a better person. I entered the community like a strange, wild animal – and some members just reached out for me and took me in. I am grateful.

I enjoy encountering many different opinions within Mensa. In most cases, we manage to exchange opinions and discuss even sensitive topics without major fights… My horizon definitely became broader and I have been enriched with lots of new information. And yes, the daily dose of humour is addictive! Thank you all for adding colour to my days (and to grey matter as well)!

It is an honour to be a member of Mensa. From the very first moment, my eyes have been sparkling: finally, I arrived in a place where people share similar thoughts, say similar puns, have similar associations like I have. Naturally, I also see the differences: different characters, attitudes and views – some of these I embrace, others I reject, but this makes the world complete. We cannot be different in the same way.
