Thanks, Dan, and also, congrats on the upcoming documentary acquired by Netflix, titled "Rather" on April 24, looking forward to seeing it! Stay humble and kind!
"This unprecedented documentary will weave the past, present and future of journalism as it delves into the man behind the legend. We’ll revisit Dan Rather’s 60+ year career and the biggest moments in American journalism. With unrestricted access, we’ll offer an unfiltered look at both his esteemed career – exploring where and how he became one of journalism’s resounding force – and his present renaissance as the last beacon of quality reporting, unfettered and in direct contact with Americans through social media."
Thank you, Dan Rather. Humility and kindness is there alright but some how missing ? Not sure why ? We came with nothing and we are going to go with nothing. Why then this attitude of trying to be biggest than yourself? Some one told me long time ago, Sir. It is nice to be important but very important to be nice.
My two cents,
Thank you, Dan
Happy Sunday and Happy Master’s viewing every one.
Thank you for reminding me about this one! I had my Kindergarten choir perform this for their final concert one year. It was a tear jerker moment. It's a tremendous reminder of holding on to the better parts of our humanity in these times.
I’d never heard the song before (I don’t listen to much Country). It was beautiful and the video with it made me cry. Thank you for the timely reminder.
You really struck home with your "humility" thing. I have always said that a trait I look for in everybody, no matter how powerful they are, is humility. Kudos to your mother.
Thank you, Dan and your team for presenting this. Especially in this political season, it would be appreciated if both politicians and the media would practice these two behaviors. It would give us all better examples to emulate.
In our family, bragging counted for nothing. "Do the job well and quietly and the results will speak for themselves", said by my dad and supported by mom. With humble and kind also comes respect, which in some circles has been replaced by blind loyalty, which doesn't have to be earned - respect does. Thoughtful people will remember to be this way even when the public examples have vanished.
Humility and kindness seem in short supply. From the halls of Congress to the halls of your local high school, kindness soesn't seem to get rewarded. Why is that? Somewhere in the answer is the worm of greed. Greed for lucre; greed for celebrity. Be good to come out of this era into a kinder gentler life.

As a Nurse, these are words that I try my best to remember to use with each patient I look after. Thank you for this lovely reminder today.
Advice that we need to survive and thrive today. Thanks Dan. It's a great way to start a Sunday!
Your mom was wise, as are you. Thank you for this piece and for turning back around to help the rest of us.

Dems aren’t great at messaging. But Biden & the down ticket might consider this song to be their campaign slogan & video, 24/7.
Thank you. The tears are streaming down my face. This is so timely and so we all need to be reminded of.

Very much needed today with everything going on with the whole planet seemingly in total chaos and conflict. Thank you.

Love this article and the song. What a nice way to start the week.
Perfect timing. Thank you sir.
