lyrics

[Written by Fred Rogers, read by Samantha Proctor] “Dear Brent: Your letter meant so much to me. I was really touched that you felt I could help you at such an upsetting time. I certainly can understand how hard it must be for you to consider Eric’s moving away. / There are no easy ways to handle those feelings. What often helps is to talk about what we’re feeling. What I was most proud of in your letter is that you are a person who can talk about what you’re feeling. Generally, when we’ve been through sad times and we’ve been able to think and talk about our feelings, we usually begin to feel better, little by little. / Something else that might help is to plan ways that you and Eric could stay in touch. I know of friends who have been separated, but who continue to stay in touch by writing or phoning or visiting on holidays or birthdays. Eric can continue to be an important part of who you are, even though he may not live nearby. Your friendship with Eric will always be an important part of who you are. And your friendship will always be an important part of who Eric is, too. / I also wanted to mention that as I as read your letter, I couldn’t help but think what a gifted communicator you are. You use words so well to talk about what you’re thinking and feeling. I’m proud to know you. You are special.”
