Show Notes
In honour of Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and every single human who has courage to stand up to injustice, this week on The Tiny Pod is all About Courage.
The word courage comes from the Latin word ‘cod’ meaning heart. Courage comes from the heart. Our heart is the source of our power, it is the strongest electromagnetic field, it generates our energy.
Broken hearts, hard hearts, act from fear. Cowards hide their faces behind masks, their malice behind power and authority. They are hiding from themselves, from their accountability, from their heart. A regulated person stands, shows their face, and has nothing to hide.
Historically it has always taken courage for the world to change - the abolitionists, the suffragettes, the civil rights movement were all acts of great courage.
Courage is whole hearted, and it asks us to heal our own hearts, to open our hearts and to live wholeheartedly.
In a world of terror and violence, there is a temptation to close, to harden. The revolution is to soften, to remain open, to feel and to love.
Those who love power forget the power of love. Love overcomes, love wins.
Amor Omnia Vincit,
M xx

This week on The Tiny Pod, in honour of last week's 81st UN General Assembly, is all About United. The word united is past tense, implying unity, unison, union has already been achieved, but unions, and all relationships are active, and continuously in flux. The moment we stop actively pursuing unity, disunity naturally creeps in. United is often used politically as a tool to both imply unity has been achieved, and to silence dissent and discourage inquiry. United in the context of United Nations, United Kingdom and United States is both aspirational and misleading. As we explore what United means in political unions, we also discover what is true in any union, whether marriage, parenting or friendship, States, governments or organisations. Unity requires continuous review, negotiation and compromise. Relationships are alive and active, and although united is not a constant state, it can be touched through commitment and active participation, and can last if continuously pursued. Families can bee united and yet have no sense of unity. Countries can be united against a common cause, while still disagreeing on others, and states can question the validity or strength of a union whilst still staying in that union. United is not unanimous agreement, it is what it always meant, an agreement to join together, to bring different parts into one cohesive whole, and that can only be done in truth. The obvious disunity at the UN this year was arguably the most honest reflection of the state of the United Nations, and it is in honesty that true unity can begin to be found.

This week on The Tiny Pod I share an episode from Tiny Pod Patreon, About Shame.
This week on The Tiny Pod Patreon is all About Plagiarism, in honour of Dr Jason Arday. Plagiarism originally meant kidnapper, child stealer, it was used to describe someone who kidnapped children or slaves, or sold free people into slavery. The word evolved to mean literary theft when the Roman poet Martial described Fidentinus as a kidnapper of his words, his brainchildren. There is no original ground zero thought, we are all walking compilations of the experiences, art, literature, films, environment and people that surround us. The opposite of plagiarism is not originality, it is honesty. Plagiarism is copying the exact style and formation of another without attribution, it is in the concealment and dishonesty. We are all part of a collective and when we share freely we build on what has come before to create something new, we see further "standing on the shoulders of giants," as Isaac Newton wrote.
