For the goodness we CAN see in each other:
“Won’t You Be My Neighbor” https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/fred-rogers-feels-hero-2018-needs-he-wanted-people-learn-ncna888706
Important. Deeply meaningful. Powerful. Delightful. Disturbing. And hopefully empowering to each of us.
Go see it. And no, it isn’t for children.
“(Mister Rogers) called us to see one another in our fullest humanity — to reach beyond the categories and divisions that estrange us from each other…”
“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. 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.” (Fred Rogers at Dartmouth commencement)
“Make goodness attractive again.” (Fred Rogers)
What we focus on grows. Let’s focus on goodness.
Respectfully,
Alice
