2. Wow, now I remember...

I grew up in the early 90's with Mr. Rogers on TV. Loved the show, feared the puppets.

Watching this though, was an epiphany, and made me realize how much of the feelings of care and empathy that have not lost out to cynicism in me are partially, possibly largely, due to the love and concern of a man I never met. Must be how Christians feel about Christ.

We need the moral teachings of Fred Rogers now more than ever.
