About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

How are there only 11 comments?! This was beautifully coneveyed both in message and expression of the art. The story telling speaks to me deeply. At the start of this year, my inner spirit was clouded by the gray paint strokes of ego. It wasnt until I hit a massive spiritual awakening, that I had to learn to unlearn. And then in the process of letting go, to retain what was always there. We all have light within us. We need not cover it with a bushel as the Bible says but let our unique light shine forth! 🌅👑🌈
