Conflict Resolution is an essential element of life but a task filled with so many diverse issues that not many can engage it without feeling a bit unprepared.

The core outcome of this project is to allow you to practice the principles of conflict resolution laid forth in the Peacemaker text.…
Conflict is inevitable, and constantly present in life. Whether it’s obvious and right in front of your face or hidden beneath a pile of lies someone will always suffer because of it. Although that being said, without it- would we truly understand the importance of peace? There are some out there who believe that some of the greatest triumphs and acts of the human spirit were during times of great conflict such as wars and repression’s. But I believe that these events have caused the most horrific demonstrations of human nature in the act of killing the innocent.…
In 2012, it was estimated that more than 172 million people were affected by conflict worldwide. The effect of so many people being affected by conflicts is a way to respond to them. With all the conflicts in the world, people need to be able to respond and react to these conflicts in the best possible way. People can best respond to conflict by believing in what they think is right and persevering through everything against them, so they can show what is morally right, let nothing hold them back, and help others with the same issue along the way. During times of conflict, it is important for people to choose a side they believe in, so they can show what they think is right.…

For the last decades, two world wars within fifty years and countless terrorist attacks, genocides all over the globe creates one of the bloodiest era in human history. Due to the violence, competitive human nature, most individuals nowadays are controlled by the pace and pressure of society, hence, impotent to achieve inner peace, “a state of harmony, the absence of hostility” (Self Growth). However, a few were able to successfully manage a peaceful mentality and spirituality, and one is the fourteenth Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso.…

A world in peace is what all people dream about, to have a good relationship with each other and to avoid any chaos-ending problems. This is a long time dream of anyone, everyone; no matter who you are, where you are; what your nationality may be; what your work may be and mostly, what you desire may be. For in your biggest ambitions in life, there is that slight hope of having peace. But in reality, peace is a dream paradise that we can never afford without atonement or experiencing pain.…
"Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding’. This is one of the famous quotes commented by Albert Einstein. When encountering conflict, it is a decisive factor whether the ability to compromise can be applied to the conflict situation. There are many different ways of responding to conflict.

“Peace cannot be achieved through violence, it can only be attained through understanding.” (Pico) is a wise adage once quoted by the famous Ralph Waldo Emerson. Throughout history, humans have always had the tendency to utilize violence to overcome obstacles. This leads to a world pessimists and morally volatile individuals (Choeling). Tenzin Gyatso, the fourteenth Dalai Lama, has been able to captivate the hearts of millions worldwide through his uplifting messages, in attempt to aid the path to world peace, dealing with social, religious and political predicaments in Tibet and worldwide.…
As I get older I don't know how anyone could live without running. Some teenagers might look for confidence in other people, but for me, I rely on myself by exercising. I believe when you put yourself into the constant routine of running, your body no longer has control over your mind. Your mind has control over your body. I remember when I first started running, I would feel that shortness of breath and the throbbing pain in my muscles, I would have self doubt. My parents have always raised me to finish what I start. Because of that I promised myself that I would continue running so that I could one day call myself a runner. Now I am proud to say I am a runner. Running has not only given me the physical strength to do anything but also mental.…
I live the value of “making peace” on a daily basis in my career and personal life. I believe that it is important to live the value of “making the peace” along with teaching others that value especially in today’s society with all of the violent behaviors that young children and adults witness daily.

As a teacher, I strive to make my students well rounded individuals to help them succeed in their classroom and in our society. I teach my students a variety of skills including academic, social, emotional, and functional. Daily I strive to teach and model for my students the importance of developing…

However, in today’s world, peace and harmony face various threats. Terrorism, regional imbalance, economic disparity, and social inequality are some of the factors which threaten peace today. We all are so engrossed in our busy lifestyles and yet want our lives to be peaceful.
