Happy Jubilee Birthday Yehuda. This message is beautiful and an appreciated gift back to all of your readers. Wishing you the peace that comes with the release of a grudge, a diminished footprint (but please come to Seattle ;), and naps! I know someone who could mentor you on that last one.

The Jubilee concept as a structural reset is such a powerful frame for thinking about lifecycle transitions. What gets me is that part about letting go of grudges because they enslave us I've been stewing over a professional slight for like two years now and it legit takes up mental bandwidth. The Leviticus anxiety you describe (will I have enough if we reset?) shows up everywhere, from retirement planning to climate policy. Happy 50th, hope the footprint goal sticks even when conference invites pile up.

Happy Birthday Yehuda! You’ve given us a beautiful gift with this piece, very “Zen Shorts” to give a gift on one’s own birthday. Wishing you a year of good health, moments that make your heart feel full, and rest.
