Back To The Basics: What I Learned In Kindergarten

With the political world getting nasty, I thought I would take us back; back to a time when we did care for each other. A place in our life when we actually shared ideas, said thank you and worked with each other. The author Robert Fulghum knows about this time and place. He wrote about it. Titled "All I Really Need To Know I Learned In Kindergarten", the book is a collection of stories and ideas about how/why people should go back to what they learned during the most impressionable time in their lives and that these lessons matter!

Below is a list from that book, perhaps McCain should take a read, perhaps three or four reads. Obama, don't attack, let the media discredit what McCain is saying.


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 every day 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.
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.

Now, take a look at this video from Obama.




On the money...

Vote Obama
Save Energy
