All I Really Need To Know I Learned In Kindergarten
by Robert Fulghum
Most of what I really need to know about how to live and what
to do and how to be I learned in kindergarten. Wisdom was not
at the top of the graduate school mountain, but there in the
sand pile at Sunday school. These are the things I learned:
Share everything. Play fair. Don't hit people. Put things back
where you found them. Clean up your own mess. Don't take
things that aren't yours. Say you're sorry when you hurt
somebody. Wash your hands before you eat. Flush. Warm
cookies and cold milk are good for you. Live a balanced
life;learn some and think some and draw and paint and
sing and dance and play and work everyday some. Take a nap
every afternoon. When you go out into the world, watch out for
traffic, hold hands and stick together. Be aware of wonder.
