I couldn't help crying when I saw 3/4... Somehow, could sense his sorrow deeply... Although this is not the subject of this documentary at all :p
Only recently learned about Fred Rogers. The father of children's television is also an ordained Presbyterian minister. There is an urgent thought in me, that as Christians, we can really be the light and salt in various fields to manifest the beauty of God. "A city built on a mountain cannot be hidden", and "a man lights a lamp, not under a bucket, but on a lampstand, and it illuminates the family."
Fred is full of wisdom and love, and his love for children is even more moving. He not only cared about them, but respected them. He conveyed to children the deepest values—compassion, understanding, forgiveness, acceptance, and more (that’s what love is)—in a language they could understand, a blessing to generations of children in America. (Expressing envy of these children, but more grateful to be a blessing to others. It's more blessed to give than to receive.)
Fred is a particularly real person. He is the same person on TV as he is in real life, and he who faces the camera is the real person in front of the TV. Because he believes that "one of the best gifts you can give someone is being honest with yourself". And he also believes that what is really important is what is invisible to the eye. What is essential is invisible to the eye.
Fred's theology is "Love your neighbor as yourself". He regards every communication with people as the most profound spiritual communication he is doing. He is convinced that "everyone desires to be loved and to know that he or she is lovable, so the greatest thing we can do is to help others know that they are loved and capable of love." What's so hard about love. However, I realize more and more that it is not easy to endure love. One is to reject it out of pride, and the other is to choose to avoid it out of fear of disappointment or hurt...
I always feel that a person who is liked by a child must be a loving person. Jesus is the perfect example. Fred is also a good model. He accepts & loves every child as they are. It seems that I started to love dealing with children after I believed in the Lord. Accepting & loving the people around you according to the truth is a very, very wonderful experience. I only have a little bit of experience, but I am already very happy.
It's you I like,
It's not the things you wear,
It's not the way you do your hair
But it's you I like
The way you are right now,
The way down deep inside you
Not the things that hide you,
Not your toys
They're just beside you.
But it's you I like
Every part of you.
Your skin, your eyes, your feelings
Whether old or new.
I hope that you'll remember
Even when you're feeling blue
That it's you I like, I still like you
It's you yourself
It's you.
It's you I like. I like you
