@ Vered, that’s adorable!

@ Barbara, you’re very welcome. It is a powerful video, isn’t it?

@ Hayden, I had never seen him outside the show either. You can clearly see that he was the real deal, and not just putting on some front for the show.

@ Writer Dad, I think that’s probably the case with a lot of his fans. It’s easy to like him as a kid, but you can’t really appreciate him fully until you’re older.

@ Cath, it really doesn’t take much effort to be nice to people, does it? To do what Mr. Rogers did, yeah, that’s hard. But we can all dish out kind words now and then.

@ Harmony, I can remember him from way back when, even better than I remember Sesame Street (which was also great). Thanks for your compliments!

Funny you mention this…as I have been studying labels. Rather than how I label others or they label me, I have been looking at my labels of myself and how much I see myself by the roles I play, the history I have lived and the expectations others have of me.

As for Fred, I remember him as a child; the tone, the sincerity – what a gift each one of us can bring to the world if we choose to.

Hunter, you have such a unique blog, thanks for your consistent info and insights.

Hi Hunter – That’s powerful stuff. I know so many people who didn’t achieve their goals because their confidence was battered as a child. It’s sad that all that’s missing in many people’s lives is a few kind words, that wouldn’t have cost a thing for someone to give them.

He was a gift. I liked him as a boy, but I appreciated him much more once I was a man.

I have always loved Mr. Rogers, but I’ve never seen him away from the show. What a rare, wonderful person. What a gift.

Hi Hunter,

I feel honored that my comment lead to this post. The video is so powerful, I think anyone who cares about children should watch it. It’s awesome.

Thank you for the link love.

He IS amazing.

In my kids’ preschool, they used to sit in a circle and sing this little song “I am special”. They would sing for each child. So it went like this: “Amy is special… Amanda is special… Connor is special” etc. To us the grownups it seemed a little silly. But the kids… their face would light up when it was their turn.

Kids need to be told they are special every day.
