- It's been 50 years since "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood" first went on the air - a television program for young children that treated them with respect, and helped them understand a complicated, often challenging world. Faith Salie looks back on the exceptional Fred Rogers, talking with his family and collaborators, and with filmmaker Morgan Neville, director of a new documentary, "Won't You Be My Neighbor."

My dad abandoned us when I was 3, my childhood was tough growing up in gang infested East LA, I can remember watching Mr. Roger's Neighborhood well into my teenage years. It was such a blessing to know that I was important. I share Mr. Rogers with my kids, they love him too.
David Mariscal It's still nice to hear him tell us we are important. It's a very easy thing to forget
👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼🥺♥️
This made me cry
I was blessed to watch mr. Rogers too. For all that he did for children we must let children know they are unique and loved
Fred cared very much about our world. He was honest and very kind. Fred encouraged us kids to be good people. Thank you, sir!!!
To the people that gave this video a thumbs down........
Mr. Rogers STILL likes you just the way you are.
Kurt Barlow I think they probably didn't see the entire video.
Kurt Barlow k,
Kurt Barlow For just your being YOU.
that was nice of u
I’d have to believe those were accidental clicks. With 200,000 views it’s more than likely 45 people accidentally made those clicks.
Your post made me smile, so all of those accidents made something special.
And Kurt I like you just the way you are.
"No man had ever told me he loved me- and he did."
"And I knew he meant it."
You are always loved by someone.
Aishah Hanani that is so powerful. I felt the emotions. I’m glad he was able to be told that he was loved. Mr. Rogers really changed his life for the better.
Absolutely amazing. You could have plenty of people telling you they love you, and not meaning it. Or you could have had no one telling you that.
But, when Mr Rogers says it to you, you know he means it. You never have to worry, or question the sincerity. You don’t have to be anxious about his love. Because he means it. That’s for damn sure. And that revelation has made my days of ignorantly blissful romantic youth much better in knowing that even if everyone’s love around me is fake- his is real. And that’s something to hold on to forever.
@tony gather The fact that you're saying that shows that you learned nothing from Rogers. Nothing at all.
God Loves everyone and died for us all. He is not some made up idea or a thought or a wishing well. Mr. Rogers tried to be like Jesus. He quoted what Jesus spoke and lived the way Jesus taught. “It’s a Beautiful day in the neighborhood...won’t you be my neighbor.” In the Bible 1st John 4:7, and 8 it says ”Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.” If you know God you will do what the scripture says, “Love one another.” I believe Mr. Rogers was speaking as an Oracle of God saying “I Love You.” The only reason it was genuine is because he knows that God loves him and never doubted. To everyone here...yes you are loved by me and above all by God. But I cannot love you with out knowing how much God loves me and yes He does love me very much.
I'm surprised Mr. Clemmons didn't fully understand the message at the time, but it was very moving to watch his reaction as he recalled when he finally got it. :-)
hojo70. The way his voice broke when remembering that moment makes me tear up.
hojo70 I don't even get what it means. But it beautiful.
@@fozzieatdetourbillnye5514 it was showing that it doesn't matter your color, sharing an intimate moment is special. And the man grew up in a toxic area where nobody told anybody they loved them, and hearing Mr Rodgers say it made him feel loved for the first time
@@tylercooper1551 That is beautiful indeed
In the 1960s blacks and whites Never shared pools with one another (except in the Northern states). They were segregated. So a black and white sharing a pool in 1969 was very open-minded..... almost scandalous
.
being nice and gentle should be the norm not the special
For sure. Speak softly and carry a big stick type.
It used to be that way. But the media and other unsavory groups out there, don't want it that way. They want upset and hate. We need to go back to more of the nice. Because "nice" used to be the norm. And it's the way it should be. With it, there would be a whole lot less hate, war, greed, hunger for power, selfishness, ect..
@Vue U me Rodgers wouldn’t want us to point fingers and just forgive them and try to help fix the problems
@@hoozerob I think you were correct to put quotes up around the word _nice._
Not all know this without example.
I didn't grow up with this guy but he's already had an impact on me just on the little of him I've seen.
moonwalkingthroughlife me too
Same
We need more genuine and wonderfully people like Mr. Rogers . In such an small amount of time, sincerely it just really spoke/ impact to me
Same here. I know of Mr Rogers since a couple of weeks, and I can tell you I wish I had grow watching his show. Definitely I'm gonna keep watching clips of his show
moonwalkingthroughlife if you ever have children... turn this show on I promise it will make them better people
Mr. Rogers was the closest thing to a saint on Earth...the world was a better place when he was part of it!
Him and Bob Ross.
@@DaikaijuDiscussions and Jim Henson. And Stan Lee
I miss him so much!
The world is better with you and all others in it! Fred would want you to know that!
And Steve Irwin
I'm 64 years old and not in good health, and having some memory problems etc., and watching listening to Mister Rogers is one of the few things that really calms me down. Bless you Mister Rogers.......
4:50 anyone else tear up?
Phlegethon Yes sir!
I did
Yep!!!
Same
I’ve been crying the entire time
Even when testifying in front of congress, the man never needed to raise his voice to be heard.
That's because that was intentional. Everyone would miss out if they didn't shut up, and what he had to say was very valuable.
I’m 38 years old and I’m not ashamed to say that when I was a little boy I religiously watched Mister Rogers Neighborhood. Kids today need someone like Mr Rogers. We miss you.
I know. We need him more than ever now.
He lives on in spirit.
Mr. McCue -I'm 53 years old and I still miss Mr. Rogers. ❤
Y E S ! Mr. Rogers made this world a better place ! especially for young, quiet, Vulnerable little humans 💌 !
5:07, not many things make you cry. But, the sight of this grown man when his voice breaks, brought a tear in my eyes.
Because of this man I wasn't alone as a child. I loved him so much I made him my imaginary friend. My heart breaks that there's no one like him today💔😞
I think there could be. We all could strive to be more like him. That would be good for everyone.
Reading all these comments, I'm struck by the kindness and love that you all have inside you. It's up to us to follow Fred Rogers' example and make love the root of all our interactions. As flawed individuals we know we will stumble yet it's the getting back up and returning to our commitment that's most important. I'm so happy we get to share admiration of Fred with each other!
These good words warm my heart. Bless Mr. Rogers for bringing light into our world. You are so right, Nate. It's up to us to carry on his legacy.
I just discovered him a few days ago and I already feel Fred impacting me :) If I ever have kids I will surely show them this beautiful show! And I am so happy that you all got to know it too!
Thank you! Wonderful words of wisdom!
Nate,🎶 there's only one in this wonderful world. You are special. Thank you just for being you.
Yes, you get it! ❤
God bless Mr. Rogers, this world needs more men like you today, tomorrow and forever.
Beautiful.
Beautiful Indeed....
i'm not crying, you're crying....wow
Aww...
Mr. Rogers was a wonderful person.
Beautiful words.
When I die and go to heaven, the first thing I will is find Mr. Rogers, jump into his arms and say “thanks for everything! I’ve really missed you!”
Aww..
I Love that!
Well, After Jesus Christ and my family.
tony gather I know I have. Jesus First and only. Family, Friends Others
Me too!
Mr. Rogers is the man we need in this world today
Oh boy wait till 2019
You can also be if you remember and keep his legacy alive.
Mr. Rogers was one of the greatest people who ever lived, simply because of who he was. He was friendly, warm, spoke tenderly, he was educational, imaginative, humorous, full of love and so open with people and learning new things. Growing up watching his show and hearing him say, "You make each day a special day. And you know how? By just you're being you." He was someone who loved us for simply who we are.
Beautiful
😂😂😂😂
*Fred, You are a very special person. There is only one like you in the whole world.*
*There's never been anyone exactly like you before, and there will never be again.😉*
*Fred, I love you just the way you are. ugga mugga!🐯*
*Love is like infinity: You can't have more or less infinity, and you can't compare*
*two things to see if they're "equally infinite." Infinity just is, and that's the way*
*I think love is, too. ― Fred Rogers*
I'm one of Fred's biggest fans, and I have been for years. I would have loved to meet him.
I used to remember watching Mister Rogers neighborhood when i was 4 years old. I really liked him. I would have met fred rogers at bubb elementary school.
divineenergy Mr. Rogers and Bob Ross..my heros! 💖💞💗👍
RIP Fred Rogers, Miss you
*aww...😘 How lovely. Please don't forget Beautiful Soul*
*that your Father is with you always and all ways. 😻*
*Sending love to you and everyone you love for All Eternities. hugs 🤗*
We need him more than ever right now.
You have him within your memory and heart. It's up to you what you choose to do with knowing that.
S O true ! SO TRUE .... poor, developing children in 2023 have been deprived of good folks like Mister Rogers ! ... and it seems to be - to this Society's detriment ! 😢
What a better world this would be had Mr. Rodgers had been president
Lori R I would ask "what did Mr Rogers do to deserve dunking into the swamp of eternal stench that is American politics? "
Come again?
Lori R it would be very much better but I would worry about Him, you know?
Lori R if he was president I'm afraid he would be hurt.
Watch the episode, carefully. Listen to the voice over and soundbites. Mr. Rogers was a stronger, braver man than you give him credit. Happy Memorial Day! Ciao :)
The world sorely needs someone like Mr. Rogers now to combat all the hatred and lack of compassion and love for each other. I think he would be ashamed of what we have become in this country and cry bitter tears for all of us.
Philly Mouse Theyll will never be another one like him but I hope one day there will be another good person who would make him proud.
I think the world needs all of us to be just a little more like Mr. Rogers. Or, perhaps be a little more like that special something deep inside of us.
I completely agree, John. We can make the world a better place if we acted just a little like this good man.
Not only your country. The way we talk to you each and about each other has changed a lot after the arrival of social media.
You are right, Tanja. We do not talk to each other face to face anymore. We hide behind other names on social media, where some people spout their hatred without consequence.
I like to completely unwind from this crazy world and just put on episodes of Mister Rogers. So relaxing....
Grew up with him. I’m 33 and still tear when I think of this show. He was truly an amazing person and I wish we had more people like him. ❤️
I'm 53 years old and I miss him so. ❤
I actually made a "Mister Rogers road trip" this past Saturday for my birthday. Went to the Pennsylvania Trolley Museum in Washington, PA where he visited in a 1984 episode. When the museum closed at the end of the day, I went to Unity Cemetery in Latrobe where Mister Rogers was laid to rest when he passed away and visited for a little while. I then went to Saxonburg and had dinner at the Hotel Saxonburg, where Mister Rogers visited in 1982 to show us what a restaurant was like. It was an awesome trip.
chatanugadotorg I wish I could do the same, but Latrobe is 5 hours away from me... one day I’ll make it there
chatanugadotorg If you ever do that road trip again,come on down to DC to see one of Mr.Rogers Sweaters at The Smithsonian.
It's worth the drive. I live in Ohio, so it's a bit of a drive for me too. Left Saxonburg about 9:20PM, getting home about 2:15AM due to the heavy rain that came through that night. Was still a great trip. :-)
chatanugadotorg Id like to do that to.
I've got the video from the trip up on my channel if you wish to watch. :-)
I always have a tendency to cry when new docu of Fred Rogers comes into the mix. I tried to keep it together to pay attention to the segment. But....I lost it after Francois Clemmons started crying.
Fred Rogers loves you and is always around in spirit!
@@melodym7045 That was very neighborly of you
That’s fine
Mister Rogers is one of the few human beings that have always had my complete respect, gratitude, and appreciation... Definitely one of the greatest human beings that has ever walked this earth... The world is worse off without him. In a time where kindness is looked upon as weakness, we need him more than ever. He is sorely missed... I will always miss this man. Thank you for helping me through my childhood Mister Rogers. I will never forget you.
He will always be in your heart!
He's immortalized, you can purchase seasons of his show for your children to enjoy. And you can watch for free on several platforms. Children continue to love him and his message.
We miss you Mr. Rogers. It's a darker, colder, meaner world without you!
There are many who do care still.
True 😭😭
I’m crying at 5:06! I feel so happy for the man! What an amazing moment he lived through with Fred!
Aww ..
I had a night job and when I came home after a bad time.at work I would watch Mr. Rogers with my children. It helped.
That man was the real deal. It may be a long time until we’re ever graced by such a person
Everywhere. They are everywhere. ❤️
@@melodym7045 Yes indeed! I am Fred. You are Fred. And Ed is Fred too!!! - Sending my love
A wonderful, highly intelligent, talented, gentle soul. He made the world a better place, by simply being himself... So missed, and so deserving of Eternal Peace.
It is so difficult to express how our world NEEDS more people like him...more compassion for others, more infinite love in this negative, hate-filled world. I know he would be horrified at all of the "mass shootings" that have occurred and so many other acts of terror! Bless you, Mister Rogers, for sharing LOVE AND LIGHT with all of us!
SpiritualLight 4 you actually do know someone like Mr Rodgers....let's open up ourselves to noticing it within ourselves and others more deeply now.
It is sad what is happening out there but think about those around you that do need people like you in this world! 💖
Those who were lucky...finally got it, I don't care what age are here today, we've all been touched and are better for it. Very nicely done. Thank you. Our humanity is reminded...
❤️
That man was too good for this world. We like actually didn’t deserve him. I’m like actually crying.
Beautiful soul. He lives on in you and the world. You have the chance to be his legacy.
Go. See. This. FILM!!! We need it now more than ever. Fred is a peaceful warrior.
I LOVED Mister Rogers! He helped me during my difficult childhood! I know that all of the children in Heaven are sitting by you and being comforted and loved by you. You are an Angel now, Mister Rogers!
SpiritualLight 4 You are lucky to watch Mr Rogers.
SpiritualLight 4 So do I, Miss him so much
I still love Mr. R and at 38, he's still helping cope with my problems. One can never outgrow the need for Mr. Rogers Neighborhood
Beautiful words
Had only heard about this guy in the past, but this is my first time watching him. This makes me so happy, what a beautiful human being.
You can also be towards others and he will always live on through you.
I believe Fred Rogers message to all is to love universally. To care about others and the impact you make in their lives. It's so easy to let cynical thoughts control your mind and actions but harder to allow true love to be shared universally without judgement. We need to remember his message.
I miss my neighbor so much the world needs more Mr Fred Rogers immediately!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am 25 years old and when I have kids it’s Gunna be Mr. Rogers 24/7 in my home. Because I watched these as a kid he impacted me as a kid I know he did without knowing it
Beautiful words.
I'm a nanna and I hope I'm Mrs Rogers to my grandson I love him so much 🥰
Fred Rogers was just a great MAN. Few people have had as much impact on everyone.
I try to emulate such a man.
BK Bland As we all should. God bless
Yes we must all now. He lives on through us all.
And I knew... He meant it. So touching.
Thank you for coming to me in my dreams and telling me the things you did. I keep them with me at all times and I was and am very humbled you chose me to talk to. I'm glad to have changed as I did, and to be a better person. Thank you, kind sir
Keep his legacy alive by helping others.
The world could use more Mr Rogers
What an extraordinary man, who was truly loving with the kindest and loving soul, and so good hearted man it was unreal.
He was part of my childhood, I loved watching Mr. ROGER, when I was 4, 5, 6, year's of age, up until my teenage years. He was part of innocent time. If everyone lived there lives how Fred Rogers did when it comes to Love, compassion, empathy, kindness, this world would be a beautiful place. With No racism, homophobia, discrimination, hatred...Just loving one another and respecting each other. Right now, in today's society, with all the hatred and racism and we really need this remarkable man.
We need more people like Mr. Rodgers in the world
They are everywhere. ❤️
Wonderful. My heart feels better just hearing him tell me I am special, even though I'm now a 30+ year old man
Aww..
He would had made a great president. He represented the good in this world. I used to watch his tv show growing up.
He was too good to be President, to be honest.
Nola Chick
Agreed to that, I just don't think he was the kind of person that would have made it in the cut throat world of politics.
He would’ve been an awful president...too nice to make hard decisions.
He would not want to control the people but rather teach them so they show into others.
What a very special segment, I really love CBS Sunday morning.
Will Herb A white Protestant minister from the suburbs telling a black gay man from the inner city that, "I love you just the way you are." ... and he meant every word of it. That is powerful. That is the power of love.
CBS Sunday Morning is arguably the best news magazine show on television and Superior to 60 Minutes in my opinion
Aww...
Yep I’m crying again
❤️ he lives within you and how you reflect that to others.
This video just makes me really happy.
The vast loneliness of my childhood was punctuated each day by the song I knew by heart, the home I could have walked through with my eyes shut, and the man I knew was kind and gentle without ever having met in real life. I memorized every detail: the refrigerator, what was in the closet, the fabric of the curtains, the artwork in Picture Picture. This is both an indictment of my actual childhood and a profuse love for this show, to admit that I would have rather lived in his Neighborhood, and that one of the only good things I can remember is that I was allowed to watch this show. Thank you Mr. Rogers❤️. I cry as an adult, everytime I hear the closing song--I never wanted you to leave when I was a child and it came to that part of the show.
aww...💌 ... bless you , thanks for sharing your comment , Dear Neighbor ...
It never mattered where you came from or what you believe in, Fred Rogers was there for you. Children never had to be afraid to ask him a question he was more then willing to sit there and listen to them.
7:36 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢 i was a high school junior and its in my year book about his passing even now its still hasnt hit me hard that Fred is gone but seeing episodes of Mr Rogers brings a little uplift in my life and its a great escape for a little bit
This is what the US needs more of. Kids as well as adults. We need more positive figures on TV like Mister Rogers. It was a blessing to grow up watching his show. My kids like Daniel Tiger but its not the same. No one can ever top Mr. Rogers.
I love how he talks about real life human issues and about dealing with feelings with a compassionate and loving heart. He spoke with humility and just had a simplicity that makes sense. He helped people see through his eyes of love. That's so honorable. Much respect to people like him he can fight for a cause without talking down to anyone but just being truthful, selfless, and just humble enough to bring humanity together as one. It's why we are here on earth, to be of service to the less fortunate, and loving towards one another as our creator intends for us to be. Nothing more or less.
Thank you Mr. Fred Rogers for being such a kind hearted person and showing children and adults alike through the land of make believe and reality how to come to terms with feelings of sadness, anger, pain, etc but most importantly, how just be grateful for the people who love us no matter what we are facing.
Loved the movie "A Beautiful Day". It was so sad to see how angry the journalist was feeling when he saw loved one dying but how Mr. Rogers helped open his eyes to experience the loss and still see the good in him that eventually turned his life around. Loved the scene about remembering all the people who have loved us through the best and worst of times but still believed in us even though they may be here or gone from us.
Beautiful story about a respected man. His unique life message was centered around kindness for one another as God loves us, we too should carry that same warmth and kind spirit despite any obstacles in life.
Fyi, my favorite puppet was always Daniel Tiger.
I grew up with him he is a good man big part of me childhood
He's the neighbor to my heart, he'll always be remembered to me.
Would always watch T.V and wait to see Mr. Rogers
I used to watch a lot of " Mister Rogers Neighborhood, " in the seventies when I was a young boy. I enjoyed it for all kinds of reasons ( mainly for the trains and music ). After I got older, I didn't think much of Fred Rogers. That changed after the 911 attacks, where Rogers put out a video to help calm people ( manily kids ) down. That video made me reaize that Fred Rogers was the complete human being that we all long to have in our lives: Compasionate, professional and patient. Overall, he showed us all that we shouldn't forget these qualities as we go through our own journeys in life. A truly remarkable man.
Beautiful words.
Beautiful description of your experience re: Fred Rogers 💌
we love and miss you Mr.Roger we wish you stile hear
When you are so wholesome, that you can make grown men cry
Mr. Rogers made you feel important, like you were the only person he was talking to.. He was so special.. When you meet someone who is truly good, you want them near you.
The world today (2019) needs a good neighbor like Mr. Rogers more than ever.
He lives on within hearts of those who believe. You continue when he cannot speak any longer.
Mr. Rogers was the greatest man on Earth!
This man is a genius, a legend, an artist of such emotional stature that he is without equal
Thank you Mr. Rodgers for being the very best of all the children's shows, teaching values, right & wrong, compassion, and love for all God's children! We love your Mr. Rodgers! A Sister in Christ, and great lover of all God's Little Ones! Lynnae Larson CT
I'm blessed to have grown up watching his show from the first time.😪❤
God bless you Fred,wherever you are.
We miss you😪
The man the myth the legend. You changed my life with your love.
I grew up in a totally different part of the world and didn't know about Mr. Rogers until yesterday. That's when I watched the movie 'A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood' and then started googling about the real Mr. Rogers. Just looking at his photos with kindness that radiates through his eyes makes you feel better. I can truly relate to your wish of having someone like him around nowadays. But at the same time I can't help thinking about how many of us are willing to try to be like Mr. Rogers at least to some extent, try to love people around us, treat them as if they are the most important person in the world.
When I was 3 I lost my father... the only positive male model in my life was mr. Rogers. He was there every morning to tell me that he loved and cared about me. And when he died I had a dream. He was in a rocking chair under a tree. He had a audience of children we were all crying. He grabbed me put me on his lap and told me he was proud of me and will always be there when I'm sad and it's okay to be sad. But remember at the end of rainstorms there is a rainbow. I was 21 when he died. And he was such a big part of my life it was like I lost another father. To this day when I feel alone I put on a video of him telling me he loves me just the way I am and instantaneous I feel better. They don't make people like that anymore.
Aw, that's beautiful. I believe his tv show was like Dad coming home, changing out of his work clothes so he could play with us, and giving us loving attention and affirmation.
I am sorry you lost your father at such a young age. You have so much hope within yourself, don't ever lose faith.
Bless Your Open Heart ! 💌 Fred Rogers is a Dear HERO to me, as well. i think it was Paul who wrote, in the BIBLE , that ALL who Believe in JESUS .. are called 'saints'.
loved him when i was young mr rogers was great for children Jesus be with him always blessings too
Not all superheroes wear capes - some wear sweaters his mother knitted for him. Pittsburgh will always love and miss her favorite Sin. Soar high with the angels, Fred! You are a LEGEND forever!
😂😂😂😂
Favorite son ... of Pittsburgh --- yes indeed !
Love ❤️
This Man made me cry 😢
The world today is a very different place than it was in the 70's.
Mr. McFeely looks and seems like the guy who played Mr. Belding on Saved by the Bell....always there for the show, even when the lights are out. So important to have him on the team. What a wonderful convergence of the perfect example of a dedicated staff.
I will make sure to have my kids watch him in the future.
When even a small essay on his life gives you tears....
The show was not played in Hong Kong and I happened to be introduced to this legendary gentleman through Watch Mojo/Ms Mojo. I grew up with Sesame Street and The Muppets. And Mr Rogers got me crying many times through watching the clips. He handled the horrifying news of JFK assassination and difficult topics like divorce and death, which I don't think many children's tv could handle. Mr Rogers really was a big present sent from God. He was a father figure to generations of children in and after his journey on Earth.
I can’t WAIT to watch the documentary in a theatre near me!! Its JUNE 2018! Its near! It brings me to tears today whenever you watch a clip of him saying “you are a very special person”. I would smile when I was a kid, now as an Adult, you just start crying. 😭❤️
SkippyGustilo I wanna see it on DVD
Adrian Avila you are gonna LOVE it. 😭❤️
Beautiful heart. He lives within you and all the good you do towards others.
I'm thankful, once again, to The Public Broadcasting Service (PBS). As much of a treasure is Fred Rogers, so too is the treasure of Public Television and its impact on the American Culture.
Fred used it for good, and we agreed that he was doing the right standing thing.
We must CONTINUE to use it for GOOD, and support the right standing things above all else. Our children will be sent on battlefields around the world to die for us, this is for them.
Mr. Roger's was wonderful
"no man had ever told me he loved me"
Oh dear you are loved by angels you cannot see. They have stayed with you at your darkest times.
He may jave been told that by his mom but no men. And thats something that needs to change
He made my childhood afternoons magical and loving 😘😘
❤️
I can't wait to see Tom Hanks as Fred Rogers.
Raghu Seetharaman I think Ed Norton would have been good too.
Im excited about tom Hanks doing fred rogers
Fred rogers is the only mr rogers he is Irreplaceable
Yes. His spirit lives on in being remembered and practicing love towards others.
Guys....are we, the generation who grew up with Mr.Rodgers......are we living up to the lessons he taught us...?.... Are we passing this on in perpetuation to our children....?
I am sir....i am.....
Fred roger the man the legend
Nothing so pleasing as a smile on Fred Rogers face. His eyes crinkle up. Just beautiful. Love pours out of this human.
Love or the the lack of it is at the root of everything
Wow
Oh such a statement.
There is never lack of love when love lives on from his memory and you can show it to another.
I’m 53 and I need to see this 👍
Fred will live on within spirit. I'm sure he would want you to continue kindness.
Fred Rogers was a modern day saint.
God bless anyone reading this. Mr. Rogers is one of those people who was sent by God to speak to us. He was given to us with a purpose, and taken away with a purpose. God wants to find special people who will speak to you out of love and honesty. Mr. Rogers was one of them-a vessel to speak for God while we’re on Earth-and, if you look closer, there are more. God is the main one, of course, but those who work for Him are tirelessly trying to spread His word and give glory to Him. It isn’t easy as a Christian, but God has a plan for each and every one of you, and you have to find it in order to be saved and go to Heaven/experience His love. God will forgive us, no matter what, no matter how many times we need forgiving. And He loves us, no matter what we do.
To all those mourning Mr. Fred Rodgers' passing and are wishing for another like Mr. Rodgers --- DO NOT DESPAIR! He was never the only kind, gentle, compassionate human in this human world. It is only that most such personalities have either gone unrecognized or been openly scorned in this world of lawlessness in hardhearted humans.
Right. Mr. Rogers & Jim Henson are but 2 of such persons.
We learn to see past this and care about others regardless of being beat down by the world. Human compassion needs to continue.
Some people would say it is hard to believe that Mr. Rogers was really THAT good, that he had to have flaws. He did. It is evident just from listening to him that he probably dealt with a great deal of insecurity, and maybe inside he wasn't as comfortable in his own skin as the average person. But whatever his flaws, I think they drove him to be the man he was, and drove him to try and ease the insecurities of the children that he was probably very much more alike with than we could ever comprehend.
He teaches A lot i likec the fact he teaches People 2 to appreciate themselves
Fred Rocks!
Rest in peace Mr Roger
We need Fred!
