My Nice Neighbour nomination

Tk from Taradale

Ray and Mary are just amazing. We are a nosiy young family, our son Haart has austism and does not talk so makes lots of loud noises, when he is upset they are not always pleasant. He constantly throws things into their front yard and they just pop them back on the railings. Haart at the mo is obsessed with electronic garage doors and gets really distressed when they are up, so our neighbours Ray and Mary always make sure their garage doors are down when we are at home, even when I am sure it is inconveniencing them. Ray also does the edging outside our front every month and he also looks after the trees and edging across the Road at Dolbel Reserve. These people are truly amazing and we are so blessed to have them next to us :)

This can be true even if the life changes are a good thing, such as a move to somewhere you will love to live.

Once you understand why you have this feeling, you can reframe it as creating a new environment that will support your present life while reminding you of your best experiences.
