This is water by David Foster Wallace
It means being conscious and aware enough to choose what you pay attention to and to choose how you construct meaning from experience
Need to make a conscious decision about how to think what to pay attention to
It's the automatic unconscious way and I experience the boring frustrating crowded parts of adult life I'm operating on the automatic unconscious believe that I am the center of the world and that my immediate needs and feelings are what should determine the world priorities
Everybody worships ( men money power) (yielding wealth comfort personal freedom ) the only choice we get his what to worship
Insidious things about most types of worship is not that they are evil or sinful but that they're on unconscious - they are default settings
Important kind of freedom involves attention and awareness and discipline and effort being able to truly care about other people to the sacrifice for them over and over in myriad Petty little unsexy ways every day
Value a real education simple awareness and if someone is sensual rounds this is water and consciously each day
In the world
