This Is Water

In the video This Is Water by David Foster Wallace is very interesting to me. Most people who graduate college get a nine to five job and deal with boredom, routine, and petty frustration. almost every single day people do the same thing, and most people look towards things negatively, David Foster Wallace calls the negativity our natural default setting. So he says instead of having petty frustration and being cranky people should look at things differently, we all have awareness and a choice by the way we act. We don't know everything all the time so judging people in a grocery line just because your frustrated is not right, their situation may be much worse than ours.
