I suppose one cannot say that the whole day was a highlight, but it really was a privilege to be part of such amazingness. If I had to really pick my cherries (and many there were in this fruit basket), it would be first of all the Silent Conductor. It was such a simple yet profound performance that demonstrated that we don't need the tower of Bable - we all already share a common language that crosses languages. The Jill Botes speak on her stroke was absolutely touching to the core. I found myself crying, touched by the tragic of logic, the hope of love, and that one day, we might never even CARE about understanding, yet be truly happy about our being. Possibly, it is not curiosity that drives us, but love. Richard's speak was superbly shocking and profound at the same time. His energy and ever-vigilant preparedness to ask why and why not really resonated with myself. Buthelezi's piece was a great showcase of his passion and a great example of great personal stories becoming ideas. Now it just needs to be formulated. Hennie's talk on Earthworms was incredibly profound and insightful - hearing about our backstage miracle workers of nature is wonderful. There is simply so much more to lyricise about, but in the interest of leaving a negative space for the filled-in solid to shine (as highlights should), I shall stop here. Again, congratulations on a great TEDxJohannesburg - looking forward to the next one... And I shall work towards creating some amazingness of my own in the mean time. Thanks again!
