ABOUT

My name is Louise. I was diagnosed with autism in my late forties.

This blog is my journey from late diagnosis, how I navigate the ups and downs of life, and the strategies I use to cope.

I also write about my lifestyle, my life experiences, and raising neurodiversity awareness.

Autism is a spectrum, and it can look different in each person. This is one way autism can present.

Letting Go of Conflict

Daily writing prompt
What could you let go of, for the sake of harmony?

I have had my share of conflict over the years. The issue is, conflict with others isn’t productive, especially if it lasts over a long period.

It is fine to have disagreements and misunderstandings. Conflict is normal in relationships, but when people drag it out without finding a solution, there is no point in it. It is a waste of energy, and it is better to solve the problem that is creating the conflict in the first place.

To find harmony in life, I have to let go of negativity from others. If they choose to behave in a certain way towards me that creates conflict, I am going to let it go. I cannot be responsible for the way people behave and feel. I will not take it personally because it says more about them than it does about me.

Not everyone will like or agree with me, so I have to move on and let them feel the way they feel.

If I am going through a time of conflict with someone, I am going to find a solution. If there is not a solution, I am going to walk away and focus on the things that make me happy.
