To whom it may concern,
I am hereby officially tendering my resignation as an adult.
*i have decided i would like to accept the responsibilities of a 5 year old again
*i would like to go to McDonald’s and think that it is a 4 star restaurant
*i want to sail sticks across a mudd puddle and make ripples in a pond with rocks.
*i want to think M&M’s are better than money because you can eat them
*i want to lie under a big oak tree and watch the ants run up its trunk
*i want to run a lemonade stand with my friends on a hot summer’s day
*i want to think a quarter is worth more than a dollar because it’s prettier and weighs more
*i want to return to a time when life was simple. When all you knew were colors, multiplication tables, and nursery rhymes. When i didn’t know what i know now. When all i knew was to be happy because i was blissfully unaware of all the things that should make me worry.
*i want to think the world is fair
*i want to think that everyone is honest and good. And 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 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’s bills, gossip, illness, and the loss of loved ones
*i want to believe in the power of smiles, hugs, a kind word, truth, dreams, the imagination, Santa, the tooth fairy, a kiss that makes the boo boo go away, making angels in the snow, and that my dad and Superman are the strongest people in the world.
So .....here’s my checkbook and my car keys and my credit cards and bills too, my
401k statements, my stocks and bonds, my collections, my insurance premiums, my job, my house and the payments too, my email address, cell phone, computer and watch. I am officially resigning from adulthood. And if you want to discuss this with me further then you’ll have to catch me first, cause.....
"Tag!!"..
"You’re It!!"
