"We need to rediscover contradiction as a creative
force within the soul."
John O'Donohue
Contradiction is generally viewed as a negative challenge, when it truly can be an opportunity for positive change. Even if we are being screamed at or showered with obscenities, there can be an enlightened outcome.
In the midst of a dispute or heated argument, scratch deeper beneath the surface to discover original motivation. Bring clarity in reference to what is triggering our reaction. Notice inconsistencies and question the underlying theme.
Soul encourages us to step back for greater clarity, and grasp the meaningful lesson at hand. Resolve of conflict can be creative in nature avoiding denial, avoidance, or blame. Even in agreeing to disagree, application of dignity and respect elevate us to a higher level of connection.
