I was inspired by J. Philip Faranda's comment on my post yesterday, "This reminds me of Everything I Need to Know ( in Real Estate) I learned in Kindergarten! "  I found the 'poem' on line and added it to the comments section within my blog post.  it was such a great reminder of the basics many of us tend to dismiss over time, that I thought it was worthy of a separate post to be shared on its own.  No points here...just a chance to share in hopes you might catch it while surfing the AR blogesphere!  Enjoy.

 

All I Really Need To Know I Learned In Kindergarten

by Robert Fulghum



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 at the top

Of the graduate school mountain,

But there in the sandpile at Sunday 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 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 everyday some.

Take a nap every afternoon.

When you go out into the world,

Watch out for traffic,

Hold hands and stick together.

Be aware of wonder.
