  Something which i read n found rather meaningful...
  
  2 sisters both wanted the same orange, neither wants to give it up to the other party, n neither can u get another 1 fr the market...so wat will u do to solve this prob?
  
  the v 1st idea wld b to divide the orange evenly b/w them rite?
  
  however...hv any1 tired to talk to both parties involved n find out y n wat they 1 it for?
  
  as it turns out, the older sis juz wanted the orange skin so that she can use it to make a cake while the younger sis wanted the inner portion of the orange...
  
  many of a times, pple behave juz like the 2 sis, both wanted something n if neither wants to take a step back, conflicts arise...
  human minds tend to assume tt compromise wld b the best solution (by dividing it into half)
  
  BUT if we really talk things over, take the time n effort to find out wat each party really wants (n not presume)...the prob can b solve with each party satisfying their wants...isitn't?
  
  so pple, start communicating n stop presuming...
  
  as usual, my 2 cents worth of advice... v

  How about this?
  
  "you want, I also want. I cant have it, you can't have it too."
  
  So, communication cannot solve all problems lor..
  
  But you pointed it out..good one..

  hmm...
  
  True, often times, Many ppl dun bother to cool down and look at the problem from different pt of view. Which is where the conflict start, and ends up in a break up.
  
  
  Well.... The fact is, at e point of anger, most ppl will juz bite on their own point instead of calm down and looking the problem in a different pt.
