All The Things I Really Needed To Know I Learned In Kindergarten
http://hawaiianlanguage.com/l-kindergarten.html

  • 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 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 every day.
  • Take a nap every afternoon.
  • When you go out into the world,
    watch for traffic,
    hold hands,
    and stick together.
  • Be aware of wonder.
  • Remember the little seed in the styrofoam cup:
    the roots go down and the plant goes up
    and nobody really knows 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.
  • Everything you need to know is in there...somewhere.
  • Think what a better world it would be if we all -
    the whole world -
    had cookies and milk at three o'clock in the afternoon and lay down with our blankets for a nap...
  • Or if all the governments had a basic policy
    to always put things back where they found them
    and to clean up their own mess.
  • And it still holds true,
    no matter how old you are,
    when you go out into the world,
    it is best to hold hands and stick together.

~ Robert Fulghum
