There is a lot of hair on fire here at DU, and it's understandable. When emotions run high, the lizard brain takes over and the analytical part gets put on hold. It's up to leaders to keep a cool head and strategize. That's one reason that I'm glad we have Pelosi as Speaker at this point in History. Having grown up in a chaotic household, I learned early to remain very collected in the face of anger and instability. It was a survival mechanism that's served me well. It got me out of an armed carjacking with the car.
I've been fascinated with conflict management (as opposed to conflict resolution) lately. Took a workshop on it.
Not all conflict can be resolved, and if we aren't directing our anger in the right direction, we waste precious energy and time spinning our wheels.
