Don't fight what is different from you, cause it may not be that different, and you are only seeing that way because you didn't give it the time. Just accept new things.

I watched an amazing TEDx talk and I loved it, I was introduced to it by an organization I was volunteering at. After that, I searched for TEDx online and I came across a Facebook event for TEDGlobal Live-stream 2012, it was in NTC, so i registered and took my friend and went to the event. The minute I entered I was amazed by everything from the speakers to the content of their talks to the theme of the event and the whole concept of sharing ideas that can change the world, but most of all one of the volunteers had the nicest approach I have ever seen and I loved him at the spot and I decide these are the kind of people I want to be around. Now i'm part of the team and I say it proudly it's the best experience of life. my main job was in the translation/interpretation team where we translate TEDx talks from/to Arabic and English, and we also do live interpretation at the event day. I was also in charge of the broadcast of the event through the Sudanese Universities via special network and social media accounts and website
