S14 Ep 588Episode 588: As we Mark the Christian Holliday how do You Justify Voting for Global Suffering?
One of the key ways we look at how we take care of each other is in infant mortality rates … they are increasing in Cuba because of your vote. 72% of White Christians voting for this global suffering.

S14 Ep 585Episode 585: We can’t blame algorithms and bans will not solve how parents have abdicated responsibility

S14 Ep 582Episode 582: My very complex thoughts on Iran

S14 Ep 579Episode 579: The INFJ and the avoidant - the ultimate head f**k
INFJs can really lose themselves in relationships and turn everything on themselves. We have such extreme forgiveness and patience that it's shocking when we run out - when we need change and the patterns keep repeating. It's too easy for us to turn all the experiences on ourselves and feel shame. Shame for sharing and being open as this requires such trust for us.

S14 Ep 578Episode 578: The Violet Writer - A new Unconditional Space
The Violet Writer https://substack.com/@thevioletwriterhttps://thevioletwriter.substack.com/p/displace-souls-and-surviving-beauty?r=73q1xqBy training, I am an observational scientist. I spend my life witnessing everyday human behaviour and trying to understand the hidden patterns. The invisible conditioning in plain view.Not unlike the violet spectrum: completely invisible to many.The part of the rainbow we simply assume to be there.Consider with me the unwritten rules we might blindly follow. The efforts that feel like mere survival, but are perhaps more. The assumptions we've never questioned. Once seen, it can't be unseen.My writing is about creating a peaceful, unconditional space for you. I hope you'll come by now and then.

S14 Ep 577Episode 577: Can we talk about the hypocrisy of not wanting a name to have Jewish associations?
The colonial hub in the Middle-East called the Middle-East based on another Colonial land .. Can we decide no one deserves to die? Surely all the religions agree on this fact?

S14 Ep 576Episode 576: The Rose Field is a victim of capitalisation somewhat ironically
The world is so disjointed for us now as creatives and ironically this book even though it wanted a massage of what is swallowed in progress and order is also a victim of the writer’s integrity … it’s not a teen book and it’s not accessible to the readers the earlier series it’s born from ….

or at least realised in advance of speaking that I am … I certainly didn’t mean yesterday’s thoughts to be on the band wagon of Black History Month!

S14 Ep 569Episode 569: Lessons from the Civil Rights movement, non-violence & the solidarity missing
Th people we need to offer compassion to are not in the room … they are not in any room and the people who speak to them don’t care about their needs. There is no solidarity at the moment, ironically especially if you are white and speaking out.

S14 Ep 558Episode 558: Unconditional Love in a Collective context
Words I read:Unconditional love is a type of love that is given freely without any conditions or expectations in return. It is often associated with parental love, where the affection remains constant regardless of the recipient's actions or behavior.Martin Luther King Jr. emphasized that unconditional love is a powerful force for change and healing, stating that it is essential for overcoming hate and injustice. He believed that love, rather than violence, is the ultimate answer to humanity's problems.M. Scott Peck defines love as "the will to extend one's self for the purpose of nurturing one's own or another's spiritual growth." He emphasizes that love is not merely a feeling but an active investment in the well-being of others.Bell hooks discusses unconditional love, particularly drawing from Martin Luther King Jr.'s work, emphasizing that love is a transformative force that requires courage and commitment, especially in the face of domination and hatred. She argues that love is not just a feeling but an active choice and practice that involves nurturing spiritual growth and upholding values like justice, honesty, and respectBooks:A Gift of Love: Sermons from Strength to Love and Other PreachingsMartin Luther King Jrhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13532185-a-gift-of-love?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=HP0tEsRZyf&rank=4All About Love: New Visionsbell hookshttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17607.All_About_Love?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=O4YfHy07GU&rank=1The Road Less Traveled: A New Psychology of Love, Traditional Values and Spiritual GrowthM.
