I want to be six again

"I am hereby officially tendering my resignation as an adult. I have decided, I would like to accept the responsibilities of a six year old again.

I want to go to the old man shop and think that it's a four star restaurant.

I want to think Ice cream is better than money, because you can eat it. I want to play football during recess and paint with watercolors in art.

I want to lie under a big gamp and build a big castle with the sand on a hot summer day.

I want to return to a time when life was simple. When all you knew were colors, addition tables and simple nursery rhymes, but that didn't bother you, because you didn't know what you didn't know and you didn't care.

When all you knew was to be happy because you didn't know all the things that should make you worried and upset.

I want to think that the world is fair. That everyone in it is honest and good.
I want to believe that anything is possible. Somewhere in my youth...I matured and I learned too much.

I want to return to the days when reading was fun and music clean.

I remember being naive and think that everyone was happy because I was.

I would walk on the beach and only think of the sand between my toes and the prettiest seashell I could find.

I would spend my afternoons climbing trees and riding my bike. I didn't worry about time, bills or where I was going to find the money to fix my car.

I used to wonder what I was going to do or be when I grew up, not worry about what I'll do if this doesn't work out.

I want to believe in the power on smiles, hugs, a kind word, truth, justice, peace, dreams, imagination, mankind and making angels in the snow.

I want to be six again."

"we can be that i guess, be adults and still be six at heart"

True, but I found it really touching; talking about childhood innocence, and contentment

sumptous..it's all it is... for a moment i have said yes... but do u really want to do it allover again? if we go back to the good old days, yes i would contemplate that wish... but becoming 6 again and considering the times...i guess not...

it would be futile to compare then and now, coz then had its own glory...now remains to be seen (still)...

i have had my life...and taking the post in general, just to take a few weight on my shoulders, i'd wish with you...just wish...

hhmm prince, we don't really outgrow the us "being children"... you can always be six, if you really want to... we can be that i guess, be adults and still be six at heart
