"Words have the power to both destroy and heal. When words are both true and kind, they can change our world." -- Buddha
I recently had the pleasure of speaking at the Creativity World Forum - a really cool conference held in Oklahoma City. That morning, nearly 200 students from local colleges held a barefoot walk to raise awareness for the global need for shoes and clean drinking water. Before I addressed the crowd, a slam poet named David Bowden performed a piece that was so raw, and so powerful, that it gave me chills. I was so moved by the poem that I asked David if I could share his words with the entire TOMS community.
Thank you David for putting together this incredible video and for using your voice to raise awareness and inspire others. This is truly fantastic stuff...
