Hello everyone, Good evening and welcome to my blogs
In my entire life, I have never been an individual who looks for confrontations that are physical in nature; however, I have participated in a couple of fights over the years. The last physical fight from which I walked away was about two years ago when I went to a local bar with some friends We had just stepped into the bar for a lively evening filled with dancing and music. But as the night wore on, our group began to clash with another group of individuals present in the bar.

One of the members of the other group knocked into one of my friends, making her lose her drink. Some words were said, and before I realized it, a fight had fully started. I attempted to stop the fight but instead got slapped myself in the process. As the situation became more intense, I also threw a slapped. Security intervened almost immediately, however, the fight had caused its fair share of injuries.
Where that night is concerned, considering my actions during that time, I am not proud to admit that I was right. I should have known better, especially since I was provoked, that violence is never a solution. First, I understood that I need to control myself better and learn how to handle issues without violence. I also learned that it is best to turn one’s back on any situation that could lead to confrontation instead of attempting to deal with it on one’s terms.
I feel that I am not a fighter, in that I do not run toward physical fight Nevertheless, I have come to understand that I ought to protect myself and others when the time comes, but without the use of violence. I think that fighting is an outcome that can be avoided if mediation and conflict management skills are applied.
In the end, the last time I got into a fight, which was a physical attack, was slightly above two years ago. It was more of a bully beat down, and though I received pummeled, the experience it imparted was of great value. I gained lessons on self-restraint, the management of disputes, and the safety of turning the other cheek. Since then, I have tried my best to stay away from physical fight, and more to understanding sensible fighting. conflict resolution, without resorting to violence. I don't believe violence to be the answer anymore; and aim to resolve any conflicts in a healthier way than I have previously done.

Most times, violence can be avoided and I’m glad you have learned your lesson. People walk about angry and looking for who to serve as their punching bag. You learning self restraint is a good thing.
