Robert Fulghum, Unitarian minister, tapes into the basic tenets we know already but tend to forget in the course of our increasingly complex lives. In the title essay of this uplifting collection, Fulghum praises the rules we learned as children "Share everything . . Play fair . . Live a balanced life . . Say you're sorry when you hurt someone" Remember these things as adults, Fulghum suggests, and your life can be richer, our world a better place.
Listen to Robert Fulghum - he is an inspiration.
