Conflicts Quote by Austin V. Songer
““In many instances conflicts arise when people with common interest start to think about themselves only. The moment you start thinking about oneself and fail to consider the interest of other people, there will definitely be conflict. The bible teaches us to love our neighbors just like we love ourselves. This means that we need to consider the interest of other people in our deeds. Jesus instructed his disciples to always think about one another and considers the interest of our neighbors in whatever we do.””
