not rocket science

Thursday June 23rd, 1 Thessalonians 4: Regarding life together and getting along with each other, you don't need me to tell you what to do. You're God-taught in these matters. Just love one another! Erik L used to use the phrase, “it’s not rocket science.” The same is true here. How do you get along with one another? Well that is simple and inside each of us. Some call them kindergarten rules. Here is a good list from "ALL I REALLY NEED TO KNOW I LEARNED IN KINDERGARTEN" by Robert Fulghum. See his web site at http://www.robertfulghum.com/ 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 in 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.
