Confessions



This is the most honest portrayal of adulthood that I have encountered. It is ten minutes that summarizes years of soul-searching, at least for me.

I most identify, and have said out loud, the feeling that everyone else on the planet is just in my way. I have often wished everyone else on the roads would just disappear.

The world doesn't revolve around me, or you. This can be hard to adjust to.

I hope I'm not the only one.



Here is the quote from the people who posted the video explaining where it came from:

"In 2005, author David Foster Wallace was asked to give the commencement address to the 2005 graduating class of Kenyon College. However, the resulting speech didn't become widely known until 3 years later, after his tragic death. It is, without a doubt, some of the best life advice we've ever come across, and perhaps the most simple and elegant explanation of the real value of education."
