Fights

There are certainly times when a fight cannot be avoided.
Whether hearing someone fighting or looking or getting involved in one, it's certainly not my cup of tea. Especially when lots of shouting and screaming around.

A fight is certainly like a fire. The more emotional you get, the more it becomes out of control. The more you forget about the main reason you fight. The mind is now only concentrating on winning. The voice starts to get shrill, louder and louder to drown the other side's voice. You forgot that the more both of you shout, none of you is actually listening to what the other side is saying. Love and friendship goes flying out of the window. In a shouting match like that, you might say hurtful words that you would have not meant. Words has a way of entering people's heart and staying there forever. It cannot be erased.

I would rather choose the silent treatment. It's not to punish the other person. It's rather to give me some time to think back about the issue that we are fighting about. I need to think clearly, and I cannot hear myself thinking if there's shouting around. When I have thought things out and have calm down, then I will sit down and talk  It all depends also on what the topic is about.

Sometimes, it just doesn't serve any purpose to fight..and there are times when you do need to fight back.. The method is of your own choice..
