yes! TED is at the very top of my google reader. also, i watched a documentary called JK Rowling: A Year in the Life and she has become my hero. she is truly an incredible woman.
thank you for sharing. it couldn't have come at a better time :)
aren't these talks amazing!! i am more inspired and education with every listen!! love love love TED!! these people renew my faith in creativity. passion. and love.
I've watched Liz Gilbert's approximately 10 times (awkward, but true...) - I also suggest Dave Eggers!
aw yes, that one from elizabeth gilbert is one of my favorites. she is such a passionate speaker.
Where's your snapping post that you promised me? Where is it Meg?
Have you watched the Natalie Merchant one?!? AMAZING!
How wonderful!! How inspiring!! Thanks Meg... just what I needed at this point in my awkward just starting college life. =D I always knew there was a reason I loved JK Rowling.
xoxoxox
TED is the man. I cannot get enough :]
The J.K. Rowling one had me in tears. And I am not a crier.
Rowling's speech has humbled me and put life into such prospective. What I most admire about her is her humility in the face of her greatness. That is truly the way to be.
And TED is just fantastic! I am so happy that it is gaining in popularity!
I love Rowling's thinking that imagination makes empathy possible. What an incredible speech to graduate with!
Thanks for sharing.
Oh Yes! I enjoy the TED talks. I, too, loved Gilbert's. I'll have to take a listen to J.K. Rowling's. I am always looking for things that might just change my life! Thanks! -cbm
i love her :)
i just watched all three and loved them all! Thanks for sharing such inspiration.
Wow - that was an amazing talk by J.K. Rowling. She reminds me of myself - or at least who I hope to be in 10 years.
I, too, was the 20-something in college struggling between what I "should" study and want I wanted to study. In the end I, too, compromised, and now I'm stuck in a cycle of debt and discouragement.
Perhaps I can take a play from J.K.'s playbook and pull myself up by my bootstraps by following my heart instead of the voices of those who think they know better than I what would make me successful.
