In life you invariably become too close to a subject and cannot form a rational opinion about said subject. It requires a break, even just a small one, to recoup and be able to come with fresh ideas and a new outlook.
This is the exact strategy I deployed over the past three to four weeks with San Jose. Much like Ross and Rachel, who took a break to realize they loved each other. I took a break to reaffirm my opinions about the 2016-17 Sharks, except I didn’t immediately sleep with the Ducks.
Hopefully some of you noticed my lack of content, for which I’m grateful.
