While we counted our blessings over turkey and stuffing, many in New York were recovering from Superstorm Sandy. It will be months or years before they see a full recovery.
Our industry deals with storms like Sandy in a number of ways. Across the country, we watch when storms come through, work with each other to prepare for the onslaught, mitigate the damage afterward and feel tremendously guilty when we thank heaven that it didn't hit our area of the world—this time.
These difficult moments keep balance in our lives. We can become overwrought about trivial details that really aren't important if the pendulum doesn't occasionally swing the other way. It's a natural cycle to keep us from getting too complacent.
