mister rogers was so uncompromisingly vulnerable and genuine
when our generation hides behind irony and sarcasm
mister rogers was so unashamedly astonished and amazed at life
when our generation hides behind jadedness, afraid to show delight
mister rogers was gentle, welcoming and peaceful, with no tinge of hypocrisy
he told us forthrightly that we had worth, that we were loveable, and capable of loving
here are two of my favorite mister rogers links (both have made me cry every time):
the npr series, this american life, featured mister rogers in a episode entitled neighbors
has a moving array of stories and encounters from mister rogers' life
