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

He Wants Us All To Leave A Part Of Ourselves With Everyone We Meet

Fred Rogers understood that every person we meet can benefit from our time together and we can learn and grow because of them. He encouraged people to “leave a part” of themselves in every meeting.

“If you could only sense how important you are to the lives of those you meet; how important you can be to the people you may never even dream of. There is something of yourself that you leave at every meeting with another person.”

We have the ability to touch the lives of so many people and Mr. Rogers wanted us to take advantage of that — not for ourselves, but for the benefit of others.
