I have decided I would like
to accept the
responsibilities of an 6
year-old again.
|
| |
I want to go to McDonald's
and think that it's a four
star restaurant
and then be able to afford a
movie.
|
 |
| |
I want to sail sticks
across a fresh mud puddle and
make a sidewalk
with rocks and bask in the sun.
I want to
think M&Ms are better
than money because
you can eat them.
|
| |
 |
I want to lie under a big
oak tree with a drippy
ice cream cone 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 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!!
