"What matters most is how children feel about their uniqueness once they do begin to realize that they are different from everyone else. How each one of us comes to feel about our individual uniqueness has a strong influence on how we feel about everyone's uniqueness - whether we grow into adults who rejoice in the diversity of the world's people or into adults who fear and resent that diversity."
- Fred Rogers (1928-2003)

I had to look up Fred Rodgers. I thought the quote might have been one from Carl Rogers (1902–1987). It certainly could have been.
A lovely, though non-Grumpy, sentiment for the new year. Thank you.
