Kia ora neighbours,

Te reo is in the spotlight and is being celebrated throughout the country as part of Māori Language Week. This week, Barbershop in Blue returned with a waiata, parents shared stories about raising children as bilingual, Stuff became Puna, and the future of te reo in NZ was debated.

Oh dear, more of Chuck Lorre's stuff.

Bruce from Napier South

CHUCK LORRE PRODUCTIONS, #432

I've been told that the act of forgiveness frees the person doing the forgiving from harboring dark, and ultimately self- destructive, emotions. While there is no guarantee that the transgressor will be relieved of shame and guilt, the forgiver will always feel … View more
CHUCK LORRE PRODUCTIONS, #432

I've been told that the act of forgiveness frees the person doing the forgiving from harboring dark, and ultimately self- destructive, emotions. While there is no guarantee that the transgressor will be relieved of shame and guilt, the forgiver will always feel better. In other words, forgiveness is, first and foremost, self-serving. Now I am all about self-serving, so for the last few years I have been practicing a sort of forgiveness mantra. Upon awakening and before retiring, I visualize those who have harmed me and imagine myself flowing love and compassion toward them. Additionally, I wish for them to have everything they could possibly want. I'm happy to report that it's working. Slowly, over time, anger has become resentment has become indifference has become amusement has become affection. And now I'm free and my heart is full.

Dr John Kerr passed away today, 11 September 2015, three years ago. He always made time for people and contributed with kindness on so many levels in our town. He along with his wife Alison and family were marvellous hosts to all who visted their property. They served as volunteers overseas. He and Dr. Peter Stormer were awesome doctors at Stortford before they both went on to study and use their skills in other areas of medicine. Along with his lovely kind eyes and his sincere care, I loved the way he would listen to people. Missing my friend and role model.
