Keeping The Faith

You may have noticed the absence of this blog's editor Greg Kandra from Couric and Co. the last couple days. That's because he's taking a little vacation as he adjusts to life as a Catholic deacon. Greg was ordained this Saturday. I was lucky enough be present this Sunday to hear him deliver a wonderful and eloquent homily. Congratulations, Greg.

In a similar vein, CBS News chief Washington correspondent Bob Schieffer lent his voice to the Washingtonpost.com column, "On Faith:"

If my life ended tomorrow, and I hope it won't, I wouldn't feel short changed. I wanted to be a reporter when I was a kid and I got to be one when I grew up. Not many people get to live out their dream. I did and wound up in a place far beyond my dream and I try to remember that a good part of the reason was sheer luck.
