Walks with Wonder

A journalist, either print or broadcast, is trained in the use of observation to help tell a story. It's always the little things that give context to the tale told, and clarity to the certainties contained in journalism 101's five "W's," and the lonely and elusive "H." In my sixty plus years as a practicing reporter, I've covered everything from wars to weirdos, from tragedies to triumphs, from Congress to City Hall and from Presidents to prisoners. I've been a local reporter, a nightly news anchor and a White House correspondent. I've been delighted to tell stories of grace and saddened by the pathos of life. Each story has its facts and its color. Facts come from dogged reporting, researched questioning and listening. They are the bones of the story. Color, the nuances that give flesh to the story come from observation. Walks with Wonder is a compilation of my observations of life, nature, spirit and events. They are short essays splashed with opinion, empathy and conjecture in the pursuit of seeing things from a different perspective.
