In this rare peak into the personal life of the author of numerous bestselling novels, gain an understanding of David Foster Wallace and how he became the man that he was. Only once did David Foster Wallace give a public talk on his views on life, during a commencement address given in 2005 at Kenyon College. The speech is reprinted for the first time in book form in This is Water. How does one keep from going through their comfortable, prosperous adult life unconsciously? How do we get ourselves out of the foreground of our thoughts and achieve compassion? The speech captures Wallace's electric intellect as well as his grace in attention to others. After his death, it became a treasured piece of writing reprinted in The Wall Street Journal and the London Times, commented on endlessly in blogs, and emailed from friend to friend. Writing with his one-of-a-kind blend of causal humor, exacting intellect, and practical philosophy, David Foster Wallace probes the challenges of daily living and offers advice that renews us with every reading.

If you have ever wanted to feel connected to God in everything you do but don't know how, This is Living! is the book for you! Offering 40 meditations and prayers, this book goes beyond the theoretical and theological into the practical. It is about experiencing the Divine moment by moment in ourselves and other living beings and while we are living our day-to-day life. This is Living! is about experiencing the extraordinary in the ordinary, the Holy in the midst of life. The combination of history, neurological research and spirituality in the first part offers a multifaceted and approachable guide to living in the present moment. The author, who was inspired by Brother Lawrence's 17th century teachings on "practicing the presence of God," has shaped his core message for our 21st century world. The second part provides Breath Prayers, Body Prayers and Daily Awareness Prayers that will keep you connected during situations you encounter every day. "Turning on the Light" will remind you that you are the light of the world, "Opening a Door" will invite you to open your inner door to love, and "Waiting in Line" will breathe new life into a mundane, potentially frustrating chore. These are just three of 40 meditations and prayers to stay present with God. The author creates a rare energy where skeptics, nonbelievers and the unaffiliated are welcomed with the same generosity of spirit as the most devout Christians. This is Living! provides spiritual guidance and deep self-healing for everyone on a spiritual path. Whether you call it "mindfulness," the "power of now" or "practicing the presence of God," you will learn to stay in the present moment where God and Life happen!
