i woke up this morning and learned that Mr. Rogers has died. he died in his home last night. mr. mcfeeley announced it this morning. mr. rogers is just one of those people who you take for granted, assuming they will always be around. a person who's sole goal in life was to make people feel better about themselves and the world around them. he touched me and so many other people, helping us to be nicer, to not be scared, to smile and be ourselves. the headlines this morning speak of nuclear arms, impending war, growing alcoholism among youths, and the death of Mr. Rogers. it's a very very sad day. but i know that his sentiments and songs and ideas will live on in all of us. the neighborhood of make-believe will live on. .caleb ben p.s. please hug someone today and tell them that you love them. ===== "Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle." ~Plato "Love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking together in the same direction." -Antoine de Saint-Exupery __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
