The things I love about journalism:

Curiosity

All the fantastic people you would otherwise not get to meet

Promoting conversation

Continuous learning

The people behind the stories

Being there

Being aware

Being objective

Being present

Giving respect

Attention to details

Providing people with a voice

Painting a picture

The importance of word choice

Linking things together to build a story

Saying off the record

Creating news

Having a sense of urgency

Knowing when to end the story by feeling it

Seeing your name in print

Making people think

Learning how people feel

What things do you love about it?
