Merry Christmas Honors Staff
 

Just wanted to pass along a heartfelt thanks and Merry Christmas to all the HHonors Staff, especially the ones who respond so promptly and effectively to the special e-mail for FlyerTalk. You have made me switch back to Hilton, something I never would have thought of a year ago.

All the best for the holiday season and a Happy New Year.

I had not one but two cards when I returned from my holiday.

Thank you, HHonors, and especially Evonne (Yvonne?) who helped me get my parents a present earlier this year.

I wish you enough

At an airport I overheard a father and
daughter in their last moments
together. They had announced her
departure and standing near the
security gate, they hugged and he said,
'I love you, I wish you enough.'

She in turn said, 'Daddy, our life together
has been more than enough.
Your love is all I ever needed,
I wish you enough, too, Daddy.'

They kissed and she left. He walked over
toward the window where I was
seated. Standing there I could see he
wanted and needed to cry. I tried not
to intrude on his privacy, but he welcomed
me in by asking, 'Did you
ever say good-bye to someone
knowing it would be forever?'

'Yes, I have,' I replied, 'forgive me
for asking, but why is this a
forever good-bye?' I asked.

'I am old and she lives much too far away.
I have challenges ahead and
the reality is, the next trip back
would be for my funeral,' he said.

'When you were saying good-bye I heard you
say, 'I wish you enough. 'May
I ask what that means?'

He began to smile. 'That's a wish that
has been handed down from other
generations. My parents used to say
it to everyone.' He paused for a
moment and looking up as if trying to remember
it in detail, he smiled even more.

'When we said 'I wish you enough,' we
were wanting the other person to
have a life filled with just enough
good things to sustain them,' he
continued and then turning toward me
he shared the following as if he were
reciting it from memory.

I wish you enough sun to keep your
attitude bright. I wish you enough
rain to appreciate the sun more. I
wish you enough happiness to keep your
spirit alive. I wish you enough pain
so that the smallest joys in life appear
much bigger. I wish you enough gain
to satisfy your wanting. I wish you
enough loss to appreciate all that you
possess. I wish enough 'Hello's' to get
you through the final 'Good-bye.'

Tears filled his eyes and he walked away.

My friend, I wish you enough!

Whoa - goosebumps!

May I add my sincere appreciation for the most excellent HHonors staff - particularly Adam and Kristy... you're the absolute best!!

Definitely, a big wonderful New Year to both Adam and Kristy! What a huge help they have been. What would we do without them??? And a grateful thanks.
