Resigning My Adulthood

I am hereby officially tendering my resignation as an adult.
I have decided I would like to accept the responsibilities of
an 8 year-old again.

I want to go to McDonald's and think that it's a four star
restaurant.

I want to sail sticks across a fresh mud puddle and make a
sidewalk with rocks.

I want to think M&Ms are better than money because you can
eat them.

I want to lie under a big oak tree and run a lemonade stand
with my friends on a hot summer's day.

I want to return to a time when life was simple; When all
you knew were colors, multiplication tables, and nursery
rhymes, but that didn't bother you, because you didn't know
what you didn't know and you didn't care.

All you knew was to be happy because you were blissfully
unaware of all the things that should make you worried or
upset.

I want to think the world is fair. That everyone is honest
and good.

I want to believe that anything is possible.

I want to be oblivious to the complexities of life and be
overly excited by the little things again.

I want to live simple again.

I don't want my day to consist of computer crashes,
mountains of paperwork, depressing news, how to survive more
days in the month than there is money in the bank, doctor
bills, gossip, illness,and loss of loved ones.

I want to believe in the power of smiles, hugs, a kind word,
truth, justice, peace, dreams, the imagination, mankind, and
making angels in the snow.

So . . . .here's my check book and my car-keys, my credit
card bills and my 401K statements. I am officially resigning
from adulthood. If you want to discuss this further, you'll
have to catch me
first, because . . . "Tag! You're it!!!"
