RESIGNATION
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 that 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 life to be simple again.
I don’t want my day to consist of
computer crashes, mountains of
paperwork, depressing news,
how to survive more days in a
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 and hugs, the soothing comfort
of a kind word, truth, justice, peace,
the power of dreams and the
imagination. I want to believe in
mankind again. I want to remember
that making angels in the snow could
make you happy.
So. . .
Here’s my checkbook and
my car keys, my credit card bills
and my 401K statements. 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.” . . .
Pass this to someone and brighten
their day by helping them remember
the Simple things in Life.
(((((((HUGS)))))))
Hope you’ll join me!
P.S. - NO TAG BACKS . . .
