The team at Emergent is deeply thankful for the relationships we have developed throughout Central New York and beyond. This is the season in which we reflect on the year’s accomplishments and growth experiences. It’s a time to humbly recognize how abundant our lives are because of the relationships we have.
Holding the space for thankfulness and gratitude isn’t always easy. Perhaps your preferred candidate lost the election, you missed out on a promotion you worked hard for, or you got some bad news at the doctor’s office. We have a tendency to “positive-wash” thankfulness, as if it’s never appropriate to feel mistreated, betrayed, or the victim of bad luck. These feelings are normal, and we must allow ourselves to feel them as deeply as we do the happier emotions.
But the power of the gratitude mindset is such that even in tough times, we can ground ourselves in awareness of the people we love, the comforts we enjoy, and the little things that make us happy. The ability to hold genuine thoughts of gratitude in the face of adversity is a gift to yourself and others. We at Emergent have observed this resilience in so many of our clients in recent years, and want to express our admiration and gratitude for your inspiring positivity.
It has been an honor and privilege to work with some of the most courageous and creative leaders, teams, and organizations over the past year. Our network is made special by people of great resilience, resourcefulness, and talent. Most importantly, it is filled with people who support one another through good times and bad. Thank you for bringing light to your work, your families and your community.
We hold so much gratitude for you, and look forward to a prosperous future together.
