won’t you be my neighbor?
“the more we can be in a relationship with those who might seem strange to us,
the more we can feel like we’re neighbors and all members of the human family.”

Fred was the Real Deal. You and I are neighbors in spirit and, sometimes, our little pictures are next to each other in the “Like” row on a couple different blogs. When that happens, it always makes me smile. 🙂

My nearest neighbor lives a quarter mile away. I like him, but it’s way too close.

I like the “human family”. Goes along with my philosophy that we are all part of the human race.

Mr. Rogers is probably my all-time favorite person, so thanks for the quote. Looks like I missed National Neighbor Day, and I’m not sure if I should find any comfort in this, but I think my neighbors missed it as well…
