Why I want to speak in Ted-X ?
There are times when I feel like nothing is working out. I look out for inspiration. From books, movies and vlogs. So far, only Ted Talks have successfully inspired me to move my ass off the bed and do something about my life. Be happy. Making choices. Looking out for those small moments. Sharing ideas.
It all began with the talk :
Hyeonseo Lee's - My escape from north Korea !
It taught me how even in her darkest time, she never gave up and just so that she can have a brighter future for herself, she planned her escape from a country engulfed in chaos !

After listening to this talk, I started looking at the suggestions. And I found this !
Maysoon Zayid - I got 99 problems and Palsy is just one !
It is about a Palsy affected stand up comedian, who broke the norms and is very successful in her life !

And the talk, about how a son chose peace over generations of hatred !
Zak Ebrahim: I am the son of a terrorist. Here's how I chose peace.

Such talks and many more make me wonder whether one day I will be able to do something so worthwhile with my life that I would be invited a guest speaker on one of such Ted Talks ? I hope yes !
