Think excellent thoughts! What enters your mind repeatly ,occupies it,shapes, controls it and, in the end, expresses itself in what you do and what you become. I think togetherness is a very important ingredient . Here in New Zealand we have a word Aroha which in English translates to compassion, tenderness, sustaining love. Whānau is a Māori-language word for extended family, now increasingly entering New Zealand language also. We also have people who will call you cuzzy (cousin) even though your not their cousin. What they are saying to you is you are indentified as a person who will always be by your side, even in difficult times. Another word Kia ora is a Māori language greeting which has entered New Zealand English. It means, literally, have life be well/healthy.
