I stopped reading for maybe a decade when I started post-secondary education. I tried books during that time but it wasn’t until finding an author that resonated with me that the interest picked up again. I still mostly only read that author now but I try other authors in between.

Same with video games. I will slowdown or stop for a while but eventually pick it back up again when the right thing comes along.

Flies

Hmm ok so maybe you can fly. Maybe it was a fluke.

Flies a bunch of times

We may have a hypothesis here.

Flies without fail a million times

Ok we are pretty certain you can fly, let’s call it a theory. But hey, we don’t know the full picture here, let’s leave the possibility open that you can’t fly and we just don’t understand things completely here.
