All I Really Need to Know...

I Learned in Kindergarten

This is the title of one of my all time favorite reads (aside from "Hold Love Strong"!).   My oldest daughter recommended it to me several years ago.   You could almost say it's my bible.   I just checked and see that the author, Robert Fulghum, has a 15th Anniversary Edition as well as several other books.   Given how impressed I am with "Kindergarten", I can't wait to read ALL the rest!

Here's a partial list of all you need to know...according to Fulghum (so true!):
  • 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 don't belong to you
  • Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody
  • Wash your hands before you eat
  • Flush!
  • Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you
  • When you go out into the world, watch out for traffic, hold hands, and stick together
It's an amazing and insightful read...not to mention that the above and a few other simple lessons he describes...are truly the basis for all you really need to know!   Enjoy!
