Resignation

I am hereby officially tendering my resignation as a grown-up. I have decided to accept the responsibilities of a child again ...

I want to return to the time when my life was simple, when all I knew were coloring books, multiplication tables, and nursery rhymes.

I want to go back to the time when my biggest worry was not getting my favorite ice-cream or chocolate bar.

The time when the weekend meant family and friends – heaps of laughter and joy.

The time where my father’s hug made me feel I own the world.

The time where my mother’s smile and telling me all will be alright was the biggest assurance, I needed

The time when I did not know what I was missing, and I did not care to know.

I want to run across a fresh puddle of rain. I want to think again that sweets are better than money because I can eat them, and they make me happy.

I want to think again that the world is fair and that all those around me are honest and good.

I want to believe in the power of smiles, kind words and dreams.

I want to believe that anything is possible and that the complexities of life can be faced with a “can do “attitude .Just similar to the times I thought I will not be able to put the pieces of that difficult puzzle together , but I successfully did .

I want to be overly excited by the little things again.

I want to go to the time when apple and orange were just fruits

I want to live simple again ... I want to live simple again ... I want to live simple again.

Back then, I knew I was to be happy because I was blissfully unaware of all the things that should make me worried or upset. I no more want my days to consist of depressing news, gossip about others, news of illness and the loss of loved ones.

I have been putting a lot of thought into it , and I just don't think being an adult is going to work for me.

I am hereby officially resigning from adulthood; I am done being a grown up

Regards,
