It’s A Beautiful Day In The Neighborhood: A Look Back At Mr. Rogers

Mr. Rogers Explained Exactly Why He Likes YOU!

Mr. Rogers wanted everyone to understand what it truly means to like someone for more than how they talk or hear or touch.

“When I say it’s you I like, I’m talking about that part of you that knows that life is far more than anything you can ever see or hear or touch,” he explained. “That deep part of you that allows you to stand for those things without which humankind cannot survive. Love that conquers hate, peace that rises triumphant over war, and justice that proves more powerful than greed.” We will struggle today to come to terms with the very message Mr. Rogers has been spreading for decades.
