I lost my passion for work. No, that's a negative statement. I just had a bigger passion for something else, for my son, and growing up with him.
I find it incredibly romantic that people should fight for a cause they believe in and be prepared to die for it.
In fact, I spent 25 years as a reporter, swearing I would never become an editor. Sitting at a desk, watching other people go out and find the story, and then fussing with other people's words - I just didn't get the appeal of that.
