Help Conflict: A Teacher with Chicken Feet! [Don't look at the feet. Look at the heart.] Are you tired of hearing troubling news?

I am not looking to be the best seller, but I and hoping for the best results. I come out of a family of 12, of which my father would say it was "more expensive by the dozen."

We had great times growing up together, and we had hiccups. We all have some form of disagreement. Nevertheless, if we don't sit down or find some time to solve or agree to disagree, conflict can escalate.

All you have to do is google and ask families who have lost loved ones from different types of volatile actions.

I hope sharing my thoughts, quotes and poems will help make a difference for a person to think before they react, and to not cause others more grief or pain.

Thanks to my brothers, James, Mac, Charles, Ezekiel, Jesse, CJ, and Isaac, my sisters, Arlene, Jacquelene, Carlene, Charlene, and Elene, my husband, Clarence, family, friends, and even my enemies, I love you too.
