sensei8 Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 By humbling oneself daily!!No one knows everything about anything. Coming across as a know-it-all about anything, even if one is well versed, humbling oneself daily can go quite a very long way, especially in the regards of peace in the midst of a calamity.For starters, at least!! **Proof is on the floor!!!

Spartacus Maximus Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 “If nations want peace, they should avoid/cease the pin pricks that precede cannon shot”The meaning of this quote is more significant than its origin. It was meant on the scale of international relations/politics, but it also applies to people on an individual level.Most conflict can be avoided simply by good judgment and quick thinking. When faced with aggressive, threatening or potentially violent people; staying calm and being polite and civil. More often than not, this will diffuse a situation long before physical force becomes necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
