    "If you can start with story you won't be walking alone." Powerful and profound. Thank you for this wisdom, Dara!

    Thank you for sharing this TedX. It's great that such a kind loving human being is out there working to help others in her community find peace and social justice. Ignore the haters they are hurting in ways they themselves don't understand. Instead resonate at a higher pitch coming from your authentic caring for the world and keep moving forward one conversation and act of compassion at a time. We are not here to win arguments or convince anyone we are right and they are wrong so I don't engage in arguments online. I look for positive people and information that helps heal. Tikkun Olam!

    This was an excellent presentation. Thank you. People readily turn others away, unless they hear a good story.

    i came from the fields of STEM and lately i've been shaping my real true interest, which really fit to my personality. while in school, i was thinking like a student but now i'm thinking like a dreamer. just like martin luther king jr., "I have a dream!" ,yeah i also have a dream for a better social change.
    my concerns of these social problems are those microproblems, these are the root of social problems which most of the people just don't focus on. i want to study humanity and social sciences so i can be better thinker for the betterment of the community or probably a society. and before i die, i want to be successful. my problem is i really not healthy now, i am sick and poor. but i'm doing the solution, i communicate my problems to my mother and so later on she allocates a time for me to go for a check up. i think it's too late, i can't save myself and the society😭. but before i die i want my wholesome wisdom words of a better social change to be saved, stored, shared, written, and spread.

      Hi Mark, I hope the check-up didn't go as bad as you expected. In any case, writing down your dream about a btter world and your ideas is a wonderful way! Sending energy and strength from Malawi.

      @@markvincentordiz All the best for tomorrow! Yes, there are more people everywhere around the world. Our team is an example. We live in a Malawian village with a lot of poverty and sickness. We want our community to be healthier and more sustainable. That's why we start a social enterprise to change our community to a better. :) We will plant 7000 Moringa trees by end of the year. The leaves are very nutritious. Moringa improves the immune system. More actions will follow.

    I really hope Dara took her own advice and listened to the stories of parents who have had their children taken into foster care so she can understand the difference between fostering and adopting.

    So instead of quantifiable statistics via survey, you based everything on anecdotes?

    it is a good initiative but scammers have taken over and we do not know which manager and so-called financial adviser is authentic. It is not sealed properly.
