Be Kind and Be thoughtful.
As governments are trying to figure out how to ease back into a new normal, please remember:
đ Some people donât agree with the suggested reopening.... thatâs okay. Be kind.
đĄ Some people are still planning to stay at home.... thatâs okay. Be kind.
đŚ Some are still scared of getting the virus and a second wave happening....thatâs okay. Be kind.
đ° Some are sighing with relief to go back to work knowing they may possibly save their business or their homes....thatâs okay. Be kind.
đŠđžââď¸Some are thankful they can finally have a surgery they have put off....thatâs okay. Be kind.
đ Some will be able to attend interviews after weeks without a job....thatâs okay. Be kind.
đˇ Some will wear masks for weeks....thatâs okay. Be kind.
đ
đť Some people will rush out to get the hair or nails done.... thatâs okay. Be kind.
â¤ď¸ The point is, everyone has different viewpoints/feelings and thatâs okay. Be kind.
We each have a different story. If you need to stay home, stay home. But be kind.
If you need to go out, just respect others when in public, keep your distance and be kind!
Donât judge fellow humans because youâre not in their story. We all are in different financial and mental states than we were months ago. So remember, be kind.
Copy, paste, and share as a reminder to BE KIND! âĽď¸

Paddy Gower seeks âbloody great Cantabâ
The Kiwi journalist drilling deep into the countryâs biggest issues is on a mission to find the local greats.
Paddy Gower is looking for the Good Kiwi in every region to feature in his show, The F@#$ing News - Paddy Gower Live on Tour.
To nominate a Good Kiwi, email reporters@press.co.nz with the name and a description of why your nominee should win. You an also share the local issues you think Paddy needs to tackle in the comments below.
It could be the woman whose knitting circle has made 3800 items for victims of domestic violence, the guy running the length of Aotearoa for mental health, or the woman with terminal cancer who spends her time campaigning to raise awareness and save lives.
âBasically I am looking for ... a bloody great Cantab who just gets on and gets things done. The criteria is somebody who has a positive attitude and makes the community a better place," Gower said.
âI will give this person the 'Big Ups' they deserve, and the community can celebrate them with me.â
A Good Kiwi will feature in each of Gowerâs live shows in 14 centres through November and December. He will name the Cantabrian Good Kiwi at his Christchurch show on the evening of Friday, November 22, at St Margaretâs College.
The F@#$ing News - Paddy Gower Live on Tour is a sort of book tour, sort of stand-up comedy, some journalistic yarns and memoir, and some motivational speaking - with a fair bit of local in each show.
Gower also wants to know about topics of interest in the region.
âIâm ... going to be taking on a big issue facing Canterbury and offering up solutions.â
A stinky suburb, a neighbourhood needing a round-about or a cathedral in disrepair - âI will make your views countâ, he said.
âI'm touring the nation to spread positivity, optimism and good vibes.â
