{Mentoring Monday"} This is Water

 

 

this is water is a brilliant and challenging speech by david foster wallace about the power of choice and perception.

“The really important kind of freedom involves attention, and awareness, and discipline, and effort, and being able truly to care about other people and to sacrifice for them, over and over, in myriad petty little unsexy ways, every day. That is real freedom. The alternative is unconsciousness, the default setting, the "rat race" – the constant gnawing sense of having had and lost some infinite thing.”
