In 1921, a butterfly
The butterfly from the ginkgo biloba tree
landed on a traffic-light pole
And as she flickered her wings,
so flickered all the traffic-lights around the world
In perfect sync
As they flickered,
the caterpillars saw…
The caterpillars dreamt…
They believed…
They became!

He also finds that he unveils deep insights and reflections when writing speeches that he delivers at mindX, his inspiring experiences platform.
Rumi said, “there is a voice that doesn’t use words… listen”. When we spend time in nature, and when we read and write about subjects we resonate with, we begin to hear the whispers of our inner voice.
