Mr. Rodgers is so comforting that if he weren’t a children’s show host, he would have made a great therapist or counselor :)

[@mookinbabysealfurmittens]

Jennifer C ...And yet, in so many ways, he already was. No matter what the children viewing his program had going on in their lives, they knew that they could turn to him for love, support, and gentle talk of tough topics that many "grown-ups" have always been afraid to address at all. They could watch him talking with other children -- children just like them -- and know that they're not alone. And that, so importantly, what they feel is actually normal. We could watch his program feeling safe in his wisdom and song, and could trust that he was honest, loving, and truly genuine, without judgment or shame (just the opposite)... even if, for too many children, he was the only one in their world who was. Not a warrior, not a king, not a rock star. These are not great! Fred Rogers was a great man, truly the epitome of "heart and soul", love and empathy and understanding. Humanity lost a piece of its soul when Fred Rogers passed away. But his memory remains, and I hope it continues until we as a species are long gone.

"There is One Thing That Evil Cannot Stand And That Is Forgiveness".... The Greatest Quote I've Ever Heard

[@savedfaves]

Fred was full of great quotes. You know I heard a great line recently from the ‘I was almost a school shooter’ guy, he was talking from his experience, “the people you think deserve love the least are the ones who need it the most”. It fits with Fred’s quote.

And Jesus of Nazareth offered it to everyone!

[@JayJay-hu8zn]

I would replace forgiveness with COMPASSION as it is far more beautiful 🙏🏽 In forgiveness we put ourselves on a higher pedestal by forgiving the other. Besides when we forgive it is consciously and the subconscious retains the hurt we were subjected to. ( the subconscious is 9 times the Concious ) Through COMPASSION we never condemn the person, however his acts are condemned. The act and the actor is not the same.

I never watched Mr. Rogers when I was a kid, but recently I’ve gone through a very hard time. I realized just how horribly abused and neglected I was as a child. The realization was awful, it was more pain than I could have ever imagined, and this lead to me some of his shows. The first one I watched, Daniel Tiger sang about feeling like a mistake and it felt like all those years finally came crashing down and I just sobbed as I continued to watch, feeling more seen or heard than I have in all 17 years. I feel truly appreciated by this man, despite the fact he’s gone. I feel more love from him than my parents could ever give. Feeling truly loved and appreciated after feeling like a worthless monster, rejected by the two people who are supposed to love you the most is easily one of the purest, most raw emotion I could ever feel. Thank you, Mr. Rogers. I’ll carry this feeling with me forever.

When they brought out Erlinger at the award show and he expressed his gratitude to Mr. Rogers, THAT was when it did me in. After all those years, reaching all those kids, no matter what color, shape or what, having one of them come back and say to you "It's you I like." must have been among the very highest points of all of Fred Rogers' entire life. You can tell too. He's normally so in control and thoughtful in his actions. But as soon as that little kid in the fancy chair wheeled out as a full grown man, he lept from his seat with excitement. God love you, Mr. Rogers.
