There are so many stories about Mr. Rogers that will truly warm your heart…from picking up the phone and calling children viewers to just check on them or making surprise visits to the hospital to see some of his biggest fans.
To say that he had a pure heart of gold is truly an understatement. During this time, we could always use a few words and encouragement from Mr. Rogers to remind us of the goodness in the world.

I recently watched A Beautiful Day In The Neighborhood, which is a story about a journalist who has to write a write up about the fabulous Mr Rogers. The journalist thinks there is no way his reputation can live up to this man and sets on a mission to write his story. The journalist will be surprised by what he finds when he spends time with Mr. Rogers. He finds healing.
In this movie, Mr. Rogers spoke to my soul.
One thing that really stood out to me is he said that when he is speaking to someone… the most important person to him in the world at that very moment is the person he is speaking to. Try to take that in.
That means he drops everything, he doesn’t multi-task or pretend to be listening… he really cares and centers his universe around them. That was just so powerful to me, especially in today’s time where we live in a world with distractions galore.
This is such a wonderful reminder for us as we speak to children, to try our best to give them our full attention.
