While flying, he came upon an undiscovered planet. Landing his rocket ship there, he came upon a strange polka-dotted creature who offered to tell him about their planet. “In an effort to be the best, all the inhabitants of their small planet began fighting amongst themselves until their planet neared destruction. Fearing the worst, the elders came up with a plan to save the planet. When their plan fails, they discover the answer had been right in front of them all along.” “As human beings, our job in life is to help people realize how rare and valuable each one of us really is, that each of us has something that no one else has, or will ever have–something inside that is unique to all time.” -Fred Rogers
