Here’s one of my most favorite mantra or life lessons. Everything I need to learn in life, I learned in kinder (kindergarten).
All I Really Need To Know I Learned in Kindergarten (by Robert Fulghum)
- 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
- Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you
- Live a balanced life: Learn. Think. Draw. Paint. Sing. Dance. Play. Work
- Take a nap every afternoon
- Be aware of wonder
- Look around
- When you go out into the world, watch for traffic, hold hands, and stick together.
My other favorite mantras are the Instructions for Life and the Word of Zurvan to Azriel, Servant of the Bones.
