This has been a year of disagreements and conflict, most notably in Ukraine. Once again, we see leaders attempting to dominate and crush those who disagree. They do this because it has worked in the past, but not for long.
The way to resolution and peace is for these leaders to genuinely understand the needs of those who are in disagreement— “to walk a mile in the other’s shoes.”
Resolution and peace can come when people in conflict are willing to acknowledge others’ needs. Then, they can be realistic about what they can, and cannot, do to meet each other’s needs, or find other avenues for those needs to be met. Then they can express the Divine Ideas of Understanding and Harmony.
Live Fully, Love Lavishly, and Be All You Can Be:
