Coromandel’s Collaborative Magazine

Coromind Editorial – Issue 23, 2024

Kia ora,

As we approach the end of the year, it’s natural to reflect on those around us and offer a little extra kindness as we look back at how much we’ve achieved together. There’s a greater sense of acceptance as we realise that, despite the challenges, we made it through. This is a beautiful example of universal love. So why not practise more of it?

Every month, Coromind brings vibrant colours and uplifting stories from our communities to the streets of the Hauraki-Coromandel region. We choose to focus on the good and highlight it. Yes, sometimes the actions and attitudes of others can puzzle us. How, in such an advanced world, do we still face a lack of understanding that, although we are all human, we are each unique in what we believe is best for ourselves and our whānau? But fighting those differences only leads to more conflict, so we return to the start: practising universal love.

Coromind celebrates the things that make us feel good while also respecting the environment and our peers. That’s why the arts are so important to us – they inspire and make us think. Art can be thought-provoking at times, but if you are at peace with what you believe, it should never offend you. Be open to different opinions and pursue conversations that support finding common ground. And if someone wants to speak louder or show off, love them anyway. It’s not always easy, but it is liberating.

Contrary to what some people might think, Coromind doesn’t get any funding from government organisations or other financial aid. The magazine exists thanks to the amazing businesses that support us every month, believing in what we do. We’re super grateful for you!

Now go ahead and enjoy what we’ve put together for you this month.

Peace,

The Coromind team
