Best Commencement Address Ever

J.K. Rowling's Commencement Address at Harvard, in which she talks about the benefits of failure (something I've spoken on, but not this eloquently or with her background) and the need for imagination (ditto.)

Well worth reading and thinking about.   I'm tagging it as "the writing life" but it's of importance to more than writers.
