All We Really Need To Know,
                          We Learned In Kindergarten

 Everything you need to know in life is in here somewhere.
The Golden Rule.. basic love.. sanitation...politics...
equality... sane living. These are the things we 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 some everyday. 

Take a nap every afternoon. 

When you go out into the world, watch out for traffic, 
hold hands, and stick together. 

Be aware and wonder. 

Remember the little seed in the styrofoam cup: 
The roots go down and the plant goes up and nobody 
really knows how or why but we are all like that. 

Goldfish and hamsters and white mice and even the 
little seed in the styrofoam cup - they all die. So do we. 

And then remember the Dick-and-Jane books and the 
first word you learned - the biggest word of all - LOOK.
