How To Get Over It!

Alister from South Dunedin

LOVE this quote! Found it on instagram this morning. To me it means what one might do with their pain πŸ˜©πŸ€•. We've all felt hurt πŸ₯ΊπŸ˜­πŸ€§ or angry 😠😀😑🀬 in reaction to behaviours from others - teachers 🍎, parents πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘¦, friends πŸ‘©πŸ»β€πŸ€β€πŸ‘©πŸ», school kids πŸ‘©β€πŸŽ“, bla bla. We all have choice 🧠☯. I suppose some never come to realise that and might end up burning down the village! Believe me I get it! I feel like personal development has been the difference maker in my life - the saving grace πŸ‘ΌπŸ™. There have been times πŸ•—πŸ•Ÿ when I have felt very much like "burning down the village"🏠πŸ”₯πŸ”₯ !! Yet the desire to go down a path that didn't lead to prison πŸ˜‚πŸ€£ was stronger than my hurt and I worked through my feelings over many years πŸŽβš–. I was driven by the desire to not feel the way I was feeling anymore. I wanted peace and happiness - BOOM.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to β€œexuberance”? πŸ₯

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re β€œallergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
