It can be
difficult to be in the same room with people you
don't like, let alone live
with them.
However, there are many circumstances where we
really have no choice in
the matter, so
we have to do our best get along with them or at
least to avoid conflict.
Here are five
tips to help you live in harmony with people you
don't like:
Stay away from topics where
you have strongly different views and refuse to
argue. If
you take the view that you
are entitled to your own opinion and do not need
to defend
it, and equally that the
other person is entitled to their opinion,
arguments can be
avoided. There's a lot
to be said for avoiding discussions on sex,
religion and politics.
Find
areas of agreement or similarity and focus on
them. Chances are, if you get to
know
someone a bit better, you will find areas of
commonality. Look for common
ground and
be willing to notice positive things about another
person. Everyone has
good aspects to
their personality. If you are willing to
acknowledge the positive
behaviors and
attitudes of another person, they will be more
likely to open up to you
and respond
positively.
Stay out of their way.
Sometimes it is just not possible to be positive
and keep trying
to improve a
relationship. Where this is the case the only
answer is to be polite and
respectful
but live as separately as possible. This is
particularly the case if the other
person is abusive in any way or engaged
in activities you don't want to be associated
with. The best way to live in harmony
with these people is at a distance, smiling
politely as you pass by.
Make clear agreements. If you are
sharing living space with someone you don't like,
it
is important to have a clear
agreement about expected behaviors and
responsibilities.
Once the agreement is
made and everyone clearly understands their own
individual
commitments, they need to
abide by the agreement made. Doing this will help
you to
live in harmony with people even
if you don't like them.
Establish
boundaries. Decide what treatment you are willing
to accept from others and
what you are
not prepared to accept and put your boundaries
clearly in place. While
everyone needs
to be flexible in this life, you need to clearly
define the behaviors that
you consider
to be deal breakers and you must make sure that
other people understand
them. For
example, someone stealing from you might be a deal
breaker as might a
person taking drugs
in your home. In turn, you need to understand and
respect the
boundaries of others. The
only proviso to this point is that people aren't
mind readers.
It is unfair to blame
others for violating boundaries they didn't know
anything about.
We teach people how to
treat us. So the first step is to respect
yourself. Clearly
defined boundaries
can assist people who do not like one another to
live together in
harmony.
If
you apply some or all of these keys to living in
harmony with people you don't like,
you
will avoid the stress of ongoing conflicts. You
may even find yourself liking them
after all.

Man

Looking
back
along

we
ma
y
find
that
harmony
used
to
exist
between
people
and

that
time
nature
was
pure

be
ploughed,
sown
and

Man
respected

and
was
one

It
seems
that
people
today
are

Nature

While

the

we
are
the
ultimate

Disappearing

have

We
have
taken
too
much
from
nature,
and
given

Looking

to
the
future,
when
we

when
we
remember
the

between

when

then
nature
will

Sure,

Along with the growth of the age, the
sense of needing a harmonious environment is more
and more
urgent for me. I need a
harmonious family; I need a harmonious company; I
need a harmonious society;
I need a
harmonious country; even, I need a
harmonious nature…… So, to have a harmonious
relationship with all things comes to
be my lifetime goal.
But
how to achieve it ? I?m going to realize it in two
aspects. The former is people, the latter is the
nature.
For
people, the most important is communication.
Language is a special treasure for human beings.
We
should make full use of it to
establish a good relationship. When a couple have
a quarrel with each
other, there will
be no response. They are afraid that if they
continue to talk to each other, a battle will
happen. And they will keep silent until
one starts to open his mouth. I don?t think it?s a
good thing to
keep a good relationship.
Nothing can not be spoken between the wife and the
husband . If you
commun
icate
with each other slowly, I?m sure that the most
difficult thing could be solved.
The second most important
is tolerance. The members of a family often have
different opinions. Then,
there will be
conflicts, especially between you and your mother-
in-law or father-in-law. In order to
avoid conflicts, everyone must forgive
others. We should also need love to establish a
harmonious
atmosphere. As a wife, you
should love your husband. As a daughter-in-law,
you should love your
mother-in-law and
father-in-law. As a mother, you should love your
children. As a worker, you should
love
your company. As a Chinese, you should love China.
But as a life on the earth
or a member of the nature, have you ever thought
what you should love? The
earth is also
a individuality, so you should keep a good
relationship with her. You should love the grass,
flowers, rivers , woods, air, energy,
and so on.
However, there
are still a lot of serious problems in our daily
life. We usually come across a factory
with the smoke moving up. It is not
difficult to find evidence of wasting water,
cutting trees, throwing
litters.
Walking on the street, you can find many kinds of
cars, which are releasing waste gas. All of
these things show that most people lack
the sense of environmental awareness. In my point
of view,
people should be aware of the
importance of the environment. And we can do some
small things, for
example, turning off
the lights in time.
Only
when the earth is fresh and clean , can we feel
frisky. Then, the earth can pass its inwardness to
us . And our body can be harmonious ,
so you will be healthy.
I
know that my goal is very hard to achieve
.Difficult as it is, I will try my best to realize
it. When you
have a harmonious family
,a harmonious company, a harmonious society ,a
harmonious nature ,you
will be very
happy. So , to have a harmonious environment is
important indeed.
