(LEX 18) – It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood. Those words bring sweet nostalgia to the listener and for just a moment, can pause the ugly divide.

It’s fitting that on the 51st anniversary of the start of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood. Though the episode didn’t air until February 19, 1968, it was filmed months prior on September 21, 1967.

After a long career, Mr. Rogers passed away in 2003.

If you want to have a nice little cry at your desk, it’s okay to have feelings. Enjoy!
