Thank you Kind Mower Man!
I am not sure who the contractor is who does our road verge mowing down Te Ngae Road but I would like them to know the kindness of the dear man mowing Te Ngae Road today.
I was biking to school with my son and he paused as we went by so we didn't get sprayed by dirt and grass. I nodded my thanks.
On my way back he paused a good 20 seconds before I got to him so the dust could settle. This time I shouted my thanks.
What would it take for us to all acknowledge the kindness of those simple gestures? What kindness can we each be in the small things that can contribute to a more joyful community and planet?
1000 kindness points to this sweet Mower Man!
Thank you again!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
