What causes conflict???

I work as a freelance drama facilitator for an organisation called Creative Voices. We often do exercises as part of the lessons and there's one that has stood out for me. It is an exercise about different points of view. You put people in a room and place them in different parts of the room. Some standing facing different directions or back to back, others looking through the door or window and other lying down or sitting. Ask them what they see. You will definitely have different answers with some similarities. Now ponder this, none of them are wrong, that is what they see from where they're standing. The speak from their point of view and this is what causes conflict in our lives. Imagine living with tolerance knowing that people say and do things from where they are standing or from where they are in their lives. Even people who are standing in the same place will notice different things because that's what they're attracted to. With this understanding it's possible to avoid conflict in our daily activities.

Let's LOVE LIFE...............STAY BLESSED and AWAY FROM CONFLICT :D
