Happy Mothers Day. My mom’s incredible, having endured many things that would crumble another person. I’m also lucky enough to have two great grandmothers. Barbara Jean Driggs Davis(top, left). Clarissa Card Paswaters(top, right). And my mom, Dianne Davis Waters(bottom, w/ my dad)

Happy would’ve-been 50th birthday, David Foster Wallace.

His short story ‘Forever Overhead’ begins with the words, “Happy Birthday.”

It also reads, “It is a big day, big as the roof of the whole southwest sky” & “You have grown into a new fragility” & “You have decided being scared is caused mostly by thinking” & “It seems impossible that everybody could really be this bored” & “Look out past it. Look across. You can see so well” & “Hold on tight” & “Now that you’re overhead you can see the whole thing” & “The ground wants you back” & “It may, after all, be all right to do something scary without thinking, but not when the scariness is the not thinking itself” & “Holding on takes time and alters the rhythm of the machine” & “No time is passing outside you at all. It is amazing” & “If you really wanted you could stay here forever, vibrating inside so fast you float motionless in time, like a bee over something sweet” & “Where you are now is still and quiet” & “From overhead it is more real than anything” & “Everything takes time. Bees have to move very fast to stay still” & “Now that there is time there is no time” & “Did you think it over” & “So which is the lie?” & “A still, floating bee is moving faster than it can think. From overhead the sweetness drives it crazy” & “That is forever” & “Step into the skin and disappear.”

“Hello.”

“Happy Birthday”

Rest in peace.

Happy 51st year since DFW’s birth. #RIPDFW
