As has been my tradition for over 20 years, I like to share with you my Conflict Resolutions each year. So, these are for 2026! And yes, I’m still working on some of the ones I included last year!
This year I will respect, appreciate and honour our differences.
This year I will remember I have room in my heart to love more and to love more deeply.
This year I will cherish my family and my friends and colleagues even more and continue to tell them how grateful I am that they are in my life, and how much I love them.
This year I will listen more deeply – and with more compassion, kindness, and love.
This year I will approach my interpersonal conflicts with increased thoughtfulness, patience, and openness. I will step back with humility to fully consider the other person’s perspective and apologize when I have wronged or hurt them. And in the aftermath of the conflict I will consider what I learned and not spend unnecessary energy on self-blame.
This year I will be true to and gentle with myself and treat others as though we share these intentions for our respective well-beings.
This year I will speak my truth and welcome others to speak theirs and I will carefully listen to them without judgment.
This year I will admit when I misspeak and learn from the mistakes I make. I will forgive myself for misspeaking and making mistakes and I will forgive others for theirs.
This year I will reach out, even more, to give support and caring to those in need.
This year I will do more to build peace – one person at a time.
Sending you my warmest regards and may year 2026 be full of joy and good health and love for you and yours – and peace for us all.
