Pointed fingers starting fires
Conflict. It's a part of life and there is no way around it. If you have not experienced conflict in your life then there is an 100% chance that you're a robot. Conflict can come in many way shapes or form. It can be conflict with a sibling a coworker a parent a friend a teammate or anybody. Not everybody in the whole entire world will agree with everything you say all the time. The important thing about conflict is knowing how to handle it so you can maybe salvage that relationship. As many of my friends know, I am very bad at this part. When somebody says something to me that i don't like I come unglued. I go into attack mode and completely lose it. I've had several arguments where I say "oh my gosh I'm so done with this relationship.". That's not right. Yes there are circumstances when it is probably the best thing to do to end that relationship, but a lot of times it's worth fighting for. If relationships were easy then that would be boring haha. The problem with a lot of people is that they don't shut up and listen and they thing they're right. I fall into this categorie big time. I'm to good at conflict because it makes me crazy. The other day I got in a fight with one of my best friends and it was bad. We yelled and screamed and texted things that neither of us meant and I was ready to dispose of this friendship because I was not willing to accept I could be wrong or at least have some fault. Nope. This girl loves me and she texted me and reached out saying that she wasn't going away and that even though our relationship can be a rollwecoaster she was going to stick around for the ride. My friends that's called love. Sometimes you have to retire the sword and love. Conflict with anybody is stressful. The easiest way to resolve conflict is to love. I know I've already written a blog about love but it's so crucial to our lives. Sometimes you have to learn to hear words that you hate and realize your wrong. I have so many amazing people in my life and I'd be devastated to lose any of their friendships or relationships. Lol because I'm again writing this blog post on a bus, but this time the softball bus. I don't know why I can just think better on a bus. When you are having a conflict that really just means there is an absence of love. It's important to know that conflict, but it's even more important to know how to handle it. I feel like I'm rambling on but I just have so many thoughts and I want to get them out thE best way possible. I get it that not all conflict can be mended. for those of you whose parents have gotten a divorce or are in the process of, are probably wanting to hit me in the face. Divorce sucks. But sometimes like I said relationships can't be mended, or they can and people just don't want to put forth the effort. You can not fully love people without two people equally working together to resolve conflict. I could write for hours on this topic, but I'm going to stop because I dont want to be overwhelming. Haha have a great day. Don't forget you can email me at anytime with questions, blog ideas, or if you just need a friend. Iperdichizzi@gmail.com
