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 a 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 You'll join me !
