A friend celebrated her 49th birthday yesterday, and I commented to her that it was now *her* Jubilee Year.
I got to watch the revelation hit her...and she lit up. 'Oh! It is, isn't it?'
It's a whole different way of looking at what is often a traumatic 'I'm getting OLD!' occasion. I'll be honest, I don't know if it makes it *less* painful, but it does provide something else to focus on so that the sting is maybe less noticed. ;)
