Perfectionist?

Mike from Paraparaumu

There's a serious problem with perfection - you can't improve on it. Creatively it's a dead end. There's a nice Buddhist story; a novice went to the Zen master and said he wanted to paint a perfect picture. The master laughed and said, "There is a straightforward way to achieve this. First become perfect and then create your picture."

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.

This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.

We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚

Want the details? The Post has you covered.
