I like ‘Aberration’ more than ‘Conflict’. It’s true tho, ‘We: LIFE’ Need-to experience a ~Challenge to OUR ideals in an order to Create our Newest Positions/ Standings!
Very true.. I believe the essentiality of understanding your position that you stand for.. and not turning only becuz of others hearsay.. if absolute foolishness. However simultaneously one must acknowledge what others say.. they must not be ignorant to everyone.. listen.. understand and still choose to react as you want to.. Very nice article 👍
I’m writing about conflict at the moment too, and the more I read about it, the more I wonder when we started treating a lack of conflict as proof of a healthy relationship. Some of my closest relationships are the ones where we’ve disagreed, survived it, and understood each other better afterwards.
I love this. I feel like conflict often gets confused with dysfunction, when in reality the opposite can be true. Healthy conflict is almost like organizational maintenance, because a small conflict today helps avoid much bigger ones down the line (whereas peace achieved through avoidance can be shockingly violent in the medium to long run). Not all conflict is destructive!
I don’t think our ‘free will’ is all that free, we are conditioned to a large extent. If my actions disappoint, frustrate or hurt others - it is their problem to deal with, not mine.
“People need to know where you stand.” Well said. It reminds me of the quote, a friend of everyone is a friend to no one. Paraphrasing.
Conflict is needed to grow 💪
Great post! Thanks.

It IS part of our EVOLUTION 🥸
I recently did a study on conflict and completely agree!
Excelente
