Student showcase: Peace, Not Fighting

Student+showcase%3A+Peace%2C+Not+Fighting

Conflicts are an obstacle that people deal with in their lives. It’s something we can’t avoid because conflicts are a part of what makes us human. Some people handle it in a mature and proper manner, but there are people who do the complete opposite. Some individuals have the mindset of violence being always the solution to problems, but that is definitely not the case at all. There are ways on how people can be peaceful and not fight with each other.

One of the things people should consider when they face problems is to ask themselves the question “Is there actually a problem here?”. It’s always better to think thoroughly about it before lashing out on someone because that would just make the problem even bigger than it already was, or probably cause a problem when there wasn’t any to begin with. A lot of people make a huge deal out of these said ‘problems’, and it just leads to a nasty physical fight, which is something no one should condone.

Another thing to consider when it comes to handling conflicts is to accept it. It may have been your fault that there is something going on, and the least you could do is accept it. Placing blame on other people is not the best thing to do because even if you think they’re the one in the wrong, there is always another side of the story left unheard. Not everyone is right about everything, and that is something we should all take into consideration.

The last thing we should all keep in mind, and this is very important: violence is not the answer to problems. We are consistently taught to believe that violence solves problems rather than create them. It has been promoted in so many ways that people kind of got the mindset that it’s a normal thing to do. It doesn’t matter who started it first, the more we attack, the more problems it creates. No matter how much you try to crush someone, you will always have to deal with more.

Conflicts are an obstacle that people deal with in their lives. It’s something we can’t avoid because conflicts are a part of what makes us human. All of the things mentioned are always important to keep in mind because you can’t really get anywhere if you choose to deal with your problems in an immature and violent matter. It’s always better to make peace instead of wars.
