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 play doctors and nurses with my friends on a hot summer's day.
I want to return to a time when life was simple.
When all I knew were colours multiplication tables, and nursery rhymes, and it didn't bother me, because I didn't know what I didn't know and I didn't care.
All I knew was to be happy because I was blissfully unaware of all the things that should make me worry 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. 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 cheque book and my car-keys, my credit card bills and my mobile phone. I am officially resigning from adulthood.
And if you want to discuss this further, you'll have to catch me first,cause.....

You mean you don't still do that?

*sulks, crosses arms, and stares moodily at Sweet sange* Your not supposed to tag, when I'm not looking, and your supposed to say when to start, so I got a chance to run

Sange, I'd join you if it wasn't for the fact I never grew up in the first place.
Now where did I put that rocket launcher from Thorpe Park?
