I enjoy Sunday night, clambering on the laptop and venting my latest musings for The Weekend Sun Letters to the Editor pages in the hope they will be shared.

Two things occupied me this week.

One was the image of a gang performing a rousing haka near a Christchurch mosque. Is this the same gang that peddles meth, destroys lives, contributes to our appalling domestic abuse statistics and fills our prisons? And here they are showing a smattering of respect and compassion for our Muslim brothers and sisters. I would like to think if you scraped just beneath the tattoos, the leather jackets and the patches, there lurks some humanity.

And was it our own Kardashian Kate Hawkesby bleating on about kids taking a day off school to protest climate change? Something about less protesting and more caring. What drivel! What's that saying about actions and words?

What I saw was kids taking charge of their lives, their world. I was proud and humbled. We will be leaving the world in good hands, and I apologise to them for what I personally have contributed to buggering up that world - their world. I will try harder kids.

I Goldsmith, Bureta.
