"All You need to know You learned in Kindergarten"

"All you really need to know you learned in kindergarten" is an incredible list, here it is: 1)Share everything 2)play fair 3)Don't hit people 4)Put things back where you found them 5)Clean up your own mess 6)Don't take things that aren't yours 7)Say you're sorry when you hurt someone 8)Wash your hands before you eat 9)Flush 10)Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you 11)Live a balanced life-learn some and think someand draw and paintand dance and play and work every day some 12)Take a nap every afternoon 13)When you go out in the world, watch out for traffic, hold hands and stick together 14)Be aware of wonder.Remember the lil seed in the Styrofoam cup: the roots go down and the plant comes up and nobody really knows why or how, but we are all like that. 15) goldfish and hamsters and white mice and even the little seed in the Styrofoam cup-they all die. So do we. 16)And then remember the Dick and Jane books and the first word you learned-the biggest word of all-look.

That is still a favorite list and something that makes me smile everytime I hear it or think of it. Simple yet, very profoundly so. Think on it, and then apply where you see fit. Kind of fits everywhere in our lives, doesn't it.
