“When I say it’s you I like, 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 (aka Mr) Rogers
(I love this quote, for it reminds that everyone has as rich an internal life and story and dialogue as I do. It reminds that despite all rationalities, sometimes we pilfer in actions and things that are weird or rash or poor. It reminds that there are foibles, and then there is authenticity. It reminds that even when face to face with someone of seemingly intractable unworkability, or unproductiveness, or even where there’s just plain disagreement, that there is a core to speak to. It reminds vilification isn’t necessary. It reminds that communication is massive. It reminds that we can say I love to you – not the actions, whether “good” or “bad”, but to you.)
(And it reminds that Mr Rogers was a remarkable human being who saw deep into the heart of possibility.)
