I tried to resign some years ago. But the Army, my wife and daughters rejected my resignation letter.

MSG (Join to see) I feel you on that brother. I actually gave my boss the following resignation letter:
I am hereby officially tendering my resignation as an adult.

I have decided I would like to accept the responsibilities of a 5 year old again for the following reasons:
- I want to go to McDonald's and think that it's a four star restaurant.
- I want to sail sticks across a fresh mud puddle and make ripples in a pond with rocks.
- I want to think M&Ms are better than money because you can eat them.
- I want to lie under a big oak tree and watch the ants march up its trunk.
- I want to think a Quarter is worth more than a five dollar bill because it's prettier and weighs more.
- I want to go fishing and care more about catching the minnows along the shore than the big bass in the lake.
- I want to return to a time when life was simple:
o When all you knew were colors, multiplication tables, and nursery rhymes.
o When I didn't know what I know now.
o When all I knew was to be happy because I was blissfully unaware of all the things that should make me worried.
- I want to think the world is fair.
- I want to think 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 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, gossip, illness, and the loss of loved ones.
- I want to believe in the power of smiles, hugs, a kind word, truth, dreams, the imagination, Santa, the Tooth Fairy, that kisses can make cuts and bruises better again and that my dad and Superman are the strongest people in the world.

Sincerely,
Real World Aficionado

He laughed and shredded it!
