Be careful what you wish for...

Or in this case, be careful what you pray for. I asked for opportunities to help me learn to deal with conflict and confrontation, and it's already beginning.
Or maybe it's just my attitude that's changing. Instead of fleeing the situations, or squirming uncomfortably and hoping they'll go away if I stay passive long enough, I'm finding that I want to have a voice, I want to be honest, to learn to be myself instead of a doormat.
Still, ugh! I knew this would happen when I said that prayer. I can at least be thankful that I'm starting off with calm confrontation and not explosive conflict. I have that to look forward to!
