In college, Philosophy 101 caused a crisis of faith that led to me stepping back from the religious tradition in which my family had raised me.

I explicitly remember thinking to myself that I needed to find SOME way of keeping myself distracted from “the big questions” or else those big questions would constantly weigh upon my mind.

So, I picked up fantasy sports. There was always a pro sport going on that I could focus upon instead of wrestling with questions I didn’t know how to deal with.

After the events of 9/12/2018, my focus on professional and fantasy sports dissipated like a fart in the wind. Now I intentionally focus upon those “big questions” and I am finding answers.
