Although I have not studied Shemitah you have done, I have nevertheless been struck by the enigmatic nature of this mitzvah, and the sense that it has a spiritual depth and breadth that may be beyond our ability to understand. I feel you have touched on this, and your thoughts make me wonder all the more what Shemitah is really about.
When we make the kinds of changes in our lives that you are doing, from a spiritual perspective, they become so much more meaningful than if we just do them out of the blue. Thank you!
