Unhealthy Relationships... Move On

There really are people who want to fight or argue or create tension. There is something exciting—something desirable for them—about this type of drama. Arguments with these people will typically not be resolved in any good way because they do not actually want them to be resolved.

It is always good to work through problems and live at peace with others when that is possible. But if they do not want to do so we cannot force resolution.

Of course there can always be exceptions but for the most part it is best to avoid this kind of negativity. It is usually an unhealthy and unproductive drain on our energy. Instead of engaging with them and endlessly spinning our wheels in arguments that will never be resolved it is wiser for us to move on and get busy doing the good and positive work God has called us to do.
