TEDx

I didn't know that real people got to go to TED Talks conferences. I thought that you had to be doctors, or special in some particular way. But last week, I was one of those people. Yes, I went to a TED Talks conference.

If you have never been on the TED Talks website, I encourage you strongly to stop reading this and click on this link.

TED Talks has a focus on educating ones self, about new and old ideas of the world. These talks concentrate on one particular idea, and they are truly amazing to listen to.

About my experience at the conference:

I walked into the building and was given a special laminated badge with my name printed on it to wear around my neck. Like wow already, right? We then sat down for several hours and listened to upwards of 10 people speak on something that they were truly passionate about. I felt special, enlightened, and inspired. The entire conference was about intersections and positive pathways and ideas in our lives. I absolutely loved everything about it. When I notice the talks come up on the website, I will be sure to link them in the future.

Now that you have explored TED, I am going to start posting an amazing talk every time that I see one, look out for them!
