We puT away our Monopoly and Scrabble seTs, and we don'T go To Bingo parfies. Dolls and baseball baTs are given To The SalvaTion Army. Now we are aclulT, because games have been discarded. BuT are games Truly ever discarded? We mainTain ThaT They are noT. We mainTain Thar insTead of dolls, people are The obiecT of play. and insTead of baseball baTs, words are used To sTrike home. We have been cynical, buT There are always reasons Tor cynicism. There are Too many Things ThaT musT be planned. Too many problems To be solved. and in shorT. Too many games yeT To be played. The quesTion we puT To you now is. which are you. Player or Pawn? IT may be boTh depending on your game.
