This is Water

Go take 10 minutes and watch this video made from an excerpted portion of author David Foster Wallace's 2005 commencement speech at Kenyon College. Then make a reminder in your todo list to watch it again a year from now.

It's nothing like what you're expecting, but everything you need to hear right now.

Really. You won't regret it.

…also, I don't know what it is with commencement speeches, but the best of them — say, Steve Job's Stanford Commencement Address, which is another must watch that's oddly also from 2005 — could easily rival the best TED talks, ever. Any day.
