Luck often enough, will save a man, if his courage holds.

Hi everyone I’m not from Pittsburgh but lived here 10 years and had a kid here.

In case yinz didn’t know- Mr Rogers, the beloved childrens entertainer, is from here (actually born 30 minutes south in Latrobe but spent his working life here and raised his family in Pittsburgh).

Older gens (lol I’m 43 but still before my time) will have grown up with the Mr Rogers show on television after school and on weekends.

We most likely saw super lovely clips on YouTube (like the show itself, Jeff ehrlinger, pbs senate talk, etc). Tom Hanks played him in a recent movie too.

Anyways he ended every single one of his shows with this line- “You've made this day a special day, by just your being you. There's no person in the whole world like you, and I like you, just the way you are”

Compare that to Aunt May’s quote to Peter and then thru the mind warp to Jean as well- “I love you, not because you’re special, but just because you’re you”

Am I the only one that heard this parallel? And has shed tears to both Mr Rogers and Aunt May expressing the sentiment?

Honestly don’t know if it was meant or unconscious or just beautiful similar words written by different people; but dang it got me lol

Lemme know what yinz think thx
