In the news, I’m seeing conflict, conflict everywhere and not much conflict resolution.
Do you see conflict resolution in my images for today?

Is the Daily Bitch conflicted about getting old? My resolution about that conflict is to embrace every day and to let go of fear as we grow older together.
Here’s what I find on YouTube when I search for conflict resolution.

In that Ted Talk, Karleen Savage shares many practical, simple, and helpful ideas about conflict resolution.
Thanks to all who strive for conflict resolution, including YOU.
everything I learn in this realm, I learn from the 3 year olds. it’s good to take turns, be kind, share, to laugh together, to give hugs if wanted, and ask someone to play.
I love learning about conflict resolution from you, beth.
I see too much intention of imposing of will and too little thought of resolution these days, Ann.
I see the same, my good friend, and I wonder what the resolution will be.
As long as the “an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth” mentality exists in some circles, there never will be peace. “Pray for your enemies; love your enemies as yourself’ is the new way, but it was spoken by a wise man two thousand years of conflict ago. The blame game is stupid when neither side is pure of fault.
I appreciate your thoughts about conflict resolution, Doug.
I’m sick of it, Ann. I’m for reparations, too, for Palestinians bumped off land and out of homes, since that is a sticking point, one that can’t be handled by giving all back to them and still having an Israeli state.
When I sense a conflict, I’m usually quiet about it – a skill I’ve learned only in the last 10 years or so. It works so much better than the feeling that I that must either convince them that I have the better argument or that I must have the last word on the subject. That entire phrase, “conflict resolution,” was something of which I remained entirely ignorant for most of my life.
Thanks for sharing these resolutions, Barbara.
Your pictures appear nice and peaceful, Ann
Thanks for this nice and peaceful comment!
