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 ripples 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 so 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 content, even happy maybe even overly excited by the little things again.
I want to live simply again! Or just have life be simple...,
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 to pay the bills.
I am tired of the media attention on doom and gloom politics, gossip, illness and sadness that sells.
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 Visa credit cards and bills and my 401K, IRA, bills and monthly statements.
