This is my philosophy of Life...Just think of the possibilities!!!
All I Ever Really Needed To Know I Learned In Kindergarten
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 found at the top of the graduate school mountain, but there in the sandbox at nursery 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 someone.
Wash your hands before you eat.
Flush the toilet.
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 for traffic, hold hands and stick together.
Be aware of wonder and wonderful things.
Remember the little seed in the plastic cup. The roots go down and the plant goes up and nobody really knows how or why, but we are still all like that.
Goldfish and hampsters and white mice and even the little seed in the plastic cup - they all die...So do we.
And then remember the story book about Dick and Jane and the first important word you learned, the biggest word of all: LOOK!
Everything you need to know is there, from Kindergarten, somewhere. The Golden Rule and love and basic sanitation...Ecology and politics and sane living...Think of what a better world it would be if we all--the whole world--had cookies and milk about 3 o'clock every afternoon and then laid down with our blankets for a nap. Or if we had a basic policy in our nation, and all other nations, to always put things back where we found them and to clean up our own messes.
And it is still the truth, no matter who you are or how old you are, when you go out there into this world, it is best to hold hands and stick together.
