his is a big year for me since it includes a
milestone birthday. In facing such an
anniversary, it's my immediate impulse to
think about resolutions as a series of lofty bucket-lists and ambitious goals related to that symbolic number: Read 50 books this year; Do 50 acts of kindness; Run 50 miles a month. How do I measure a successful year of my life?
The cult of the "New Year, New You" is hard to shake, but frankly, facing 50 is daunting. What is 50 supposed to feel like, to look like? Where am I supposed to be after five decades of life?
