Did anyone else watch the Barbara Walters special on ABC. What a spectacular two hours of journalism and history last night and Americana from Mamie Eisenhower, Audrey & Katherine Hepburn, Clint Eastwood, John Wayne, Elizabeth Taylor, Sperio Agnew, Henry Kissinger, Farrah Fawcett, Raquel Welch, John & Bo Derek, and plenty of many many others. I sat there in amazement, never letting my eyes leave the TV. Barbara was a trendsetter, historian, a true storyteller, class act and a real woman, not some showy, slutty, sun bleached, faked baked, silicon, cologen, fashionesta wanna be. There have been two key pieces of advice Ive heard over the past couple of days, and theyve really stuck with me...The first from Barbara Walters... Your audience either will fall in love with you, or they wont and they never will. I only hope that my audience that Ive seemed to acquire over the years through face to face, and through this so called writing knack I have (I have no idea, what everyone is telling me this for..), will enjoy what I have to say, and if they dont please tell me. As Ive said from the beginning, if I can bring a smile to one persons face than its all worth it. The second from the first lady of country music (argue if youd like) Dolly Parton, while on the Today show this week.... Im as old as yesterday, but as young as tomorrow. I interpret this as, The wisdom you gained from yesterday and the knowledge you will gain tomorrow; can help guide and teach others and yourself throughout life. I only hope that one day, perhaps I can leave a lasting legacy as these ladies have...
