With a mother giving him good advice like that, it’s no wonder that Mr. Rogers grew up to be the type of person that you would want as your neighbor. Fred Rogers was a part of my adulthood. I did not know him until I started raising my own children. I think I loved his show more than my kids did. It was so positive and encouraging.
This reminds me of the warm and loving nature of mothers. They always see the positive in everything.
This quote tells us more than meets the eye. Even in the worst situations there is always something positive.
We should all strive to be helpers. Always try and bring joy in whatever situation you find yourself in.
There is no better advice than what we are told by our mothers. I always believe they know what is best for us.
Yet another inspiring and thought provoking quote. I can’t get enough of them. I hope you share even more of the same Tom!
That is the term known as SENSATIONALISM!!! Where everyone sees the bad stuff rather than the good ones? News tend do that because it sells. Simply put 9/10 times people will be drawn to chaos, sex and scandals??? Because we find beauty in it to be honest.
Nice quote from Fred Rogers. When I was a little boy I love seeing scary movies. Thanks for sharing
Those are kind words from the mom. It is good to always guide our children well when they ask us anything.
Your mum is right..helpers are everywhere
“Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are ready to help in scary situations. It pays to help people in needs.
No mother would wanna mislead her child. Nice quote with reasonable meanings. Thanks for sharing.
I always look out for helpers when I’m in a situation that needs help like this. We can only pray for help and hope we locate our helper.
Very wise mother, the stories always have different angles and different viewers.
