I've made a decision...

I've made my decision. I am going to stay a kid forever. Just call me Peter Pan living in Neverland.
I remember wanting nothing more than to grow up and do whatever I wanted. Guess what, it sucks!!
Seriously, if I could be between 5-7, life would be awesome. I loved kindergarten through grade 1. My best friends from then are still friends today... can't always say that about friends from other times. You said how you felt, and it was okay to cry if you were frustrated (because most of the others would cry by the end of the week).
Everyone had a fair shot at playing something. I don't remembered being bullied until later in elementary, so this was an experimenting time. Imagination wasn't something to hide - it was needed! How else would you play at recess?
Am I glamorizing this? Absolutely. Just like a kid does about growing up. I don't like budgeting and money... let me live off an allowance and not worry about bills, loans, savings and the like.
People would be proud of anything you try, not snicker at what looks like a feeble attempt (like me running!)
On the other hand, I love my job - most of the time, my friends, my adventures... just still wish for the simpler times.
With that, good night!!
