I
am hereby tendering my resignation as an adult.
I have decided that I
want to accept the responsibilities of an eight year old again.
I want
to go to McDonalds and think it's a four star restaurant.
I want to
sail sticks across puddles and make ripples with rocks.
I want to think
Smarties are better than money because you can eat them
I want to
return to a time when life was simple:
When a 'Race Issue' meant
arguing about who ran the fastest,
When it wasn't odd to have two or
three 'Best friends'.
When it was unbelievable that 'Kerby' wasn't an
Olympic sport.
When the worst embarrassment was being picked last for
the team.
When icecream was concidered a basic food group.
When
football cards could transform any pushbike into a motorbike.
When all
you knew were colours, mutiplication tables and nursery rhymes; but
that didn't bother you because you did not know what you did not know
and you did not care.
All you knew was to be happy, because you were
blissfully unaware of the things that should make you worried or upset.
I want to think that the world is fair and that everyone is honest and
good.
I dont want to worry if there are more days in the month than
there is money in the bank.
I want to believe anything is possible; to
be oblivious to the complexities of life and to be over excited by the
little things again.
So, here are my car keys, checkbook, credit card
bills and my security pass. I am officially resigning from adulthood,
and if you want to discuss it further you'll have to catch me
because.....
TAG YOUR IT!
