Resignation as an adult (kind of long)

[newmousecateer]

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.

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

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
play games with my friends on
a hot summers day.

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

All I knew was to be happy because I
was blissfully unaware of all the things that
should make me worry 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, gossip, illness,
and the 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 cheque book
and my car-keys, my credit card bills,
and my mobke phone. I am officially
resigning from adulthood.

And if you want to discuss this
further, you'll have to catch me'first, cause....
....."Tag! You're it!"

"kind of long" well I guess I am going to have to "kind of call the long post police on you "

 

[Sheree Bobbins]
