Introduction
Slide 2
It is very normal to have disagreements. We can be happier if we learn to change a conflict into a win-win situation.
Reflective thought
Slide 3
Conflict resolution skills help us to resolve our arguments with respect, without blaming others and being negative or making the situation with others worse.
We must also remember that sometimes, we also need to admit we are wrong and to say we are sorry for the wrong we do to others.
It is very normal to feel anger and sadness when people hurt you. Revenge and anger, however, will make you terribly unhappy. When you decide to forgive, you will find peace and freedom.

Asking for forgiveness and forgiving others gives you inner freedom. Explain that asking for forgiveness gives you freedom from guilt.

Prayer
Dear God,
Help us to make peace with each other. To resolve our arguments and conflicts with love and respect. Help us to forgive those who hurt us with the same generosity and mercy with which you forgive us. Amen
