Probably the most important single element that I found in my own marriage was a sense of humor.
I never had the ambition to be something. I had the ambition to do something.
Walter Cronkite (1916-2009) was an American broadcast journalist who served as anchor for the CBS Evening News (1962-1981). His closing words at the end of each newscast read as “And that’s the way it is.” The news stories he covered made up a litany of American history’s most significant moments in the 1960s and 1970s. He was often cited as “the most trusted man in America” during his time as news anchor.

We watched him regularly, and occasionally my dad would give me the eye when he was making some point and say, “And that’s the way it is!”

Your Dad knew how to make his response very clear in its intention. I sometimes look back and remember having three national television networks and their respective newscast. It’s bad we can’t return to those times.
