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 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 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 Ya'll join me !
