Everyone of us is an alloy of morals, principals, and emotions. We are the mixture of our life experiences! The most important thing in an alloy is its uniqueness, it is such as your fingerprint. Scientifically speaking, alloy is the mixture of a basic metal and additional elements which leads to new properties because of the changes happening among the atoms.  You are an alloy, and connecting with a different person's alloy creates a new alloy with new characteristics.  Alloy was the theme of this year's TEDxGUC event, the fifth annual event.
