Running Bear Report 30 Jun 2008 19:05

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!!
