Researching past posts around this time of year, my November 2024 post is sadly still relevant in these demanding times. At this moment in time, it might be challenging to summon up a strong sense of Gratitude. The expression gratitude translates to an appreciation for what one has, an acknowledgement of value independent of economic worth.
Spontaneously generated from within, gratitude it is an affirmation of goodness and warmth. A social sentiment which bolsters relationships, its roots run deep in our evolutionary history, a way of being, stemming from the survival value of helping others and being helped in return. Sharing.
This Thanksgiving, rather than share a long list of appreciative traveler praise, and we recognize our achievements wouldn’t be possible without our valued clients and our hand selected partners all over the globe. My travels in Papua New Guinea last week were an example of our expert teams, due to Cyclone Fina shutting down my Darwin departure airport, I wound up in Dili, East Timor! A quick call to Shirit Lamm-Gurman, who manages our client flights got me back on track, it was a 25 hour slog home, but expertly managed by our flight team. It’s not the first time Shirit has ‘rescued’ me or a client’s child, stuck in a remote location! Gratitude.
It’s not what we say about our blessings. But how we use them,
Is the true measure of our Thanksgiving.
I’m eternally thankful to our energetic, adventurous and grateful clients and our expert teams.
Happy Thanksgiving!
