While visiting my family’s orange groves as a child, I remember walking through the gardens of Bok Tower (the highest point in peninsular Florida) and wondering what could have prompted someone to build something so beautiful and serene for others to enjoy? The carillon and its gardens were simply a gift by one man - a thanks for the opportunities that the American people had given him. The subhead on this issue’s cover, “the mantle we wear,” contains an oceanliner’s amount of hubris, doesn’t it? It is with hope that our readers interpret such a state- ment as one associated with great responsibility while enjoying life to its fullest. As American editor, Pulitzer Prize-winning author and Philanthropist Edward Bok said: “Wherever your lives may be cast, make the world a bit better or more beautiful be- cause you have lived in it.” As the demographic continues to challenge itself to find renewed purpose with an ever-changing worldview, we are also concerned that age-old definitions to concepts have lost their meaning altogether. Uninformed marketers have taken words like “luxury” and distorted them inappropriately in affluent market sectors including real estate where they no longer symbolize their true essence. Our current findings inid- icate that if it says “luxury” or a derivative thereof, it is assuredly not. We’re excited to present “partnerships, preservation, and purpose” as our theme in this issue. Personal stories mix with perspectives as readers ponder the holiday sea- son and goals for 2025. Beyond November’s election and the variety of viewpoints we all bring to the table, how will you answer Edward Bok’s call to action? As you review this folio that has morphed into a showcase of possibilities, please con- tinue to resonate with your intentional spirit that encourages all of us to “ remember not just to live, but live well. ”
