I have been waiting to hear back from a job for a few days, and i realized something. As i wait i find myself very exhausted. I just want to sleep. My mother assumes i am depressed. I thought OMG maybe i am! But i dont feel sad or depressed. My laundry is done, my house is clean, food cooked. SO then it hit me.I'm not sad, just trained.

You see ever since i was young i have played a game called harvest moon. Its a rpg where you farm and live out your life with wife and kids. Now in that game (im on the 5th generation) you grow crops, and go to festivals, marry women, have babies ect. Now when you get impatient from playing to much you have an option. You can sleep. If there's a hurricane and you cant go outside, its ok cause you can sleep. If your waiting for your crops to mature you can water them and sleep. If you are waiting for a festival or a season to end, you can just go to sleep until the desired event arrives. So i have decided that the reason this generation finds them selves tired, is not because of depression, but because we have done all we want to that day and are waiting for the next, or for an event to happen and we have just been trained by our video games to well, sleep through it.
