\"\"No one likes conflict.\u00a0 As a matter of fact, if you like conflict, there is something really weird about you.\u00a0 All of us ultimately want peace.\u00a0 We want things to go well – in our family, in our job, in every area of our life.<\/p>\n

Well, the truth of the matter is, conflict is part and parcel of our everyday lives. <\/strong> How do we ever think that two, or three, or four, or ten deeply-wounded people could ever be together, work together in a harmonious way without acknowledging conflict and finding ways to bring about resolution?<\/p>\n
