Thanks, Satya. It feels like a big deal but lots of folks have said their 50s were their favorite, so here's hoping.

A beautiful contemplation. And a document in real time of a mind opening, expanding, presenting itself to the here and now. Very nice, Robyn. 🩷

Another great one. You’ve probably already read Ross Gay’s Book of Delights, but if not, it is a gentle way to remind us of everyday joys. By the way, if I don’t see you before, have a great birthday you magnificent woman. 💓

I have read Ross Gay's Book of Delights and am now reading his Book of More Delights. They are, of course, delightful! See you back in town soon. We're here through Friday.

Another ‘by the way’: my 50s were my favorite years. So much fun!
