the power of kindness
the theme today is reflecting on childhood memories, i just wanted to tell a funny story about Mr. Rogers, of PBS television fame, apparently his plain while impala car that he drove his whole life was stolen outside of the TV studio. the news picked this up and it was reported widely. then 48 hours later, the car was returned to the exact spot with an apology note on the dashboard that read, “If we’d known it was yours, we never would have taken it.”
the link in this post includes other interesting stories about him. i remember him so fondly.

I loved Mr. Rogers too. I think it was largely because I didn’t have a father figure growing up and he always seemed to talk directly to me through the TV. He gave me more one on one attention than my father ever did. I think that was his intention, to have kids feel he was with them. Great program.
