Communication in Conflict

Online coursework continues to go well and I'm finding myself in the midst of one of those totally life-changing courses that I wish I'd had access to in high school! I'm learning how to change my perceptions of conflict so that I'm less threatened when it occurs, to assess the situation, and a variety of skills and tactics to apply for resolution.

Another reason this class is a landmark is that it is my first upper level class and I'm doing quite well despite the increased work load.

I will try to post more here as I am able...kind of busy with class and life in general right now.

Some of the things I'm likely to post about:

living with a psychiatric disability
animal rights
community volunteerism
sustainable lifestyle
class and poverty issues
career goals
missing my parents
Mr. Baggins, the hobbit who thinks he's a cat

Many thanks to Ankur for creating this site and for inviting me. I'll look forward to getting to know people as time goes on.

Peace and Love,
Rhonda
