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 Smarties are better than money because you can eat them.

I want to lie under a big gum 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 check book and my car-keys, my credit card bills and

all my 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. "
