Who Loved You Into Loving?


In my spiritual tradition, today is All Saints Day. It is a day to remember and honor those who have shaped us, particularly those who have died. It can also be a day to honor those who are living. We ponder people over time and how we are connected.

Fred Rogers used to say,

“From the time you were very little, you’ve had people who have smiled you into smiling, people who have talked you into talking, sung you into singing, and loved you into loving.”

Who has done this with you and for you?

One thought on “Who Loved You Into Loving?

  1. My Mom and Dad and my Aunt Eva. Aunt Eva was 12 years older than my mom and was like a grandmother to me. I am a very fortunate, some would say blessed, woman to have had them in my life.

    Thanks for making me stop to remember.
