Spats and arguments are often the result of stress, fatigue or activation of unknown triggers. When you’re in someone else’s cross hairs, it’s crucial to avoid getting activated yourself. It can be difficult to remain calm when you’re unfairly blamed, unless you remember that the situation isn’t really about you. You’re never responsible for the way anyone else feels. Staying conscious of the fact that their reaction is never personal, (no matter how much it feels so) will make it easier for you to hear their concerns with compassion. And that’s the quickest…
Way to peace.
