   Aucun Actuellement, il n'y a pas de discussions au sujet de ce livre.   Irensia | Jun 12, 2023 |  What I believe is most worth knowing is that every human being has value. This is the basis of all healthy relationships; and it's through relationships that we grow and learn best. Reading this book at the start of 2021, after one of the most volatile years on record, this particular passage struck me. How much of our ills (as a country/world/people/species) can truly be boiled down to such a simple premise? Imagine if everyone believed that everyone else had value, by virtue of being human. I'd like to think that respect would be the most basic feeling, instead of distrust or hatred. *shrug* I suppose one can dream. This is a sweet collection of letters that Mr. Rogers received over the years, as well as his responses. The letters came from children, parents, young adults, and even older folks. Some were funny (such as the child who believed Mr. Rogers didn't poop because his television house didn't have a bathroom!), and some are poignant - the letters expressing fear and sadness about a variety of subjects, from friends moving away to siblings unexpectedly dying. Mr. Rogers was always very careful to respond in general terms, as he explains at the beginning of the book; he didn't want anyone to see him as their therapist, merely as a caring friend. Though it can be a little condescending these days to read his constant responses about how important feelings are and how important it is to express them to family members, by the end of this collection, I was starting to believe it was true 😊 He makes several points about how expressing feelings are healthy not only because it keeps us from bottling them up, but because it can also be a way to test/set boundaries. As a former psychology major, I can see a lot of the child development coming out in his responses. As a voracious romance reader who hates the Big Misunderstanding trope, I fervently believe that communication is important! I miss Mr. Rogers, and I wish he was still a force in our world. We need someone like him, with unconditional love, to be a force again. (  ) eurohackie | Jan 6, 2021 | aucune critique | ajouter une critique
