I've written many times in this space over the last 35 years of the common journey that we share in this industry. I recently traveled to a far different place, where I was reminded that it is the people we meet who make our life journey worthwhile. If the outline of the trip I took in July was used as copy for a credit card commercial, it might read like this: Amazon Medical Mission to Macedonia, Colombia: Five days, 22 flights, cancellations, and connections to get there. 40 medical mission team members, 1,000 people receiving medical and dental treatment, 25 couples married and 37 people baptized - the first time either had happened in years. One eight-foot-long pirarucu fish made for one delicious lunch. Put a number on the total experience? PRICELESS.
