Farm Town

Bree has me playing Farm Town on Facebook now. Farm Town is a computer game where you grow crops, harvest them, and take them to market. At the market, you receive "coins" that you can reinvest in your farm (new seeds to sow or trees to grow) or spend on various farm buildings, animals, and accessories. Of course, it's a computer game, so it's all virtual. Some players have very nice-looking farms that feature every single item available for purchase in the game. There is a lot of time invested in these "farms."

It's a fun little game, but I think it is reflective of what's wrong with a lot of people. The problem is, people put all this time "working" their farm, planning and implementing every little detail they can imagine, but it's all completely fake. All this time and effort is being spent on nothing. To me, I think that is exactly the problem. We have our hopes and dreams. We plot and plan, but then we do nothing.

Go. Do.
