Flying home on the morning after this
MAGICAL event, I am taking a moment to try and reflect and capture some of the
truly special moments for me:
·
Attending with my daughter, of
whom I am immensely proud of;
·
Having my mind, heart and soul
fed;
·
Being challenged in oh so many
ways;
o
BabyX – the raw reality of what
we saw is beyond anything I could or can comprehend. The potential for and from this is just
staggering;
o
The reality of the extremity of
war and violence, suffering and oppression and the risks that good people take;
o
The sheer majesty and beauty of
our world, especially our night sky and the challenge to take time to notice,
enjoy and celebrate it;
o
The call to action – the
challenge to get involved! For every so
long I have been aware of the need to give, I have just not been sure of the
area to become involved in. Thomas
Petschner’s Clown doctor talk made me acutely aware of the need for educators
to increase the way in which they are there and injecting fun into
learning. I plan to work with a small
team initially to look at how we can ideate and come up with possibilities;
(Thank you Thomas for this call)
o
The very real challenge to take
more action with my own health and well being.
Thank you Julie for the insight
into the importance in micro nutrients in well being.
·
Connecting with so many amazing
people;
·
Getting outside the education
bubble, connecting, learning and networking with scientists, doctors,
photographers, artists;
·
Celebrating the MAGIC of being
present for TEDx Christchurch and anticipating the rewindable learning when the
talks are online;
·
Knowing that the world is a
better place by every action we do to act, share, support and be there for
others.
Thank you to the entire TEDx Christchurch
team. You are all absolutely amazing!
