Tag, You’re It!

by Larry John

 

 Do you ever want to go back to being a kid again? Here’s something I found by an Unknown author: “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 think M&Ms are better than money because you can eat them. I want to return to a time when life was simple. 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 don't want my day to consist of computer crashes, mountains of paperwork, depressing news, and how to survive more days in the month than there is money in the bank. 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, Tag! You're it." Think about it.
