A personal exception.
Attended a talk held by Dr Jane Goodall, someone i knew about since a young age. It does annoy me that very hardly anyone that i talk to knows about her. She's a famous primate conservationalist, and now at 70+ yrs old, travels the world talking about her experiences and conservation. Let's just say it was ...really heartening. Though all the issues she talked about i basically already knew , but it's so much more meaningful and much less cheesy if you hear messages like love and peace, and how individuals can make a difference, direct from someone who really believes in it and has been there and done that. She isn't the kind of magnectic charismatic speaker, but rather a quiet and slight old lady, who yet draws her audience to her in a quiet and understanding way, due to her underlying passion and simple words. I actually got to talk to her personally for a few minutes. Well basically, thouh more time to reflect on this is needed, i came away with a hightened sense of priorities in life, and more hope, that i as an individual can change the world. Which i think people should reflect on; their life priorities.
