Most of the time
we don’t see ourselves as
(S) HEROES
TAKE A CLOSER LOOK

We often look to do the EXTRAORDINARY
instead of just taking the ORDINARY
and bringing our
E  X  T  R  A
to it.            .            .
NOW THAT’S TRULY (S)HEROIC 
It’s all that’s necessary.            .            .
Not just
YOU BEING YOU
but simply bringing your
 YOU-NESS
to the moment before you.            .            .
Yeah,
(S)HEROIC
YOU:
A (S) HERO

Mister Rogers’D http://thecaringcatalyst.com/mister-rogersd/ http://thecaringcatalyst.com/mister-rogersd/#comments Mon, 25 Nov 2019 12:00:00 +0000 http://thecaringcatalyst.com/?p=4249

It was a staple in most households when we were growing up and there were literally only three (4) channels on your tv set:
NBC
ABC
CBS
PBS
and most often I was a human remote control
changing the stations
upon request. . .

We’d tune in just about every early evening while my mom was finishing preparing dinner and it would be my job to watch my younger brothers; we’d watch MR ROGERS and though I acted like it was for little kids, this not-so-little-kid got a lot out of it, but maybe not as much as I got this past Friday when I went to see Tom Hanks in
A BEAUTIFUL IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD

Thanksgiving is just a few days away
and maybe we’ve already snuck a piece of pumpkin pie
or some fruitcake
or a slice or two of turkey. . .

I have a request for you this Thanksgiving:
If you haven’t already
sometime over this holiday weekend, maybe even
T H A N K S G I V I N G
itself,
I want you
I’m literally begging you
TO BE SELFISH
P L E A S E
be selfish enough to go see this movie. . .

I’m so glad that this small Trailer showed my favorite thing in the movie:
THE ONE MINUTE OF SILENCE SCENE
with the powerful
the most awesomely powerful message:
“LET’S JUST TAKE A MOMENT AND THINK ABOUT ALL OF THE PEOPLE WHO LOVED US INTO BEING. . .JUST ONE MINUTE!

Mr Rogers was one special person because it was his life’s mission to make everyone he met feel
SPECIAL;
he was
COMPASSION IN ACTION
KINDNESS ENACTED

and more:
He’s inspired us to be the same. . .
Join me in doing
JUST THAT. . .

Please, won’t you be my neighbor?

Pssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssst:
It won’t guarantee you a
HAPPY THANKSGIVING
It’ll give you a most
Enchanted Life. . .
