In this lecture, I am really not going to lecture.  I just want to ask you some questions, some curious wildfire questions applying some of the information we have discussed in previous lectures to your conflict story.  So, here's some curious wildfire questions for you. 


What wildfire risks exist in your conflict story?  


Have you've been labeled because of past crimes or wrongdoing?  If so, what are those labels that others use to define you?  


What are the damaged relationships in your conflict story?  How many are there? 


Do you expect to encounter ongoing burdens and barriers due to your past offense?  What are they?  


How will you respond to these challenges? 


Who will help you investigate the risks and opportunities you face in restoring relationships and transforming the dynamics of justice in your life? 


Well, how these questions are answered, when we focus on the wildfire, differ dramatically from how these questions are answered when we turn our attention to The Peacefire. 


In the next lecture, we'll introduce you to the piece fire and talk about how it impacts our perspective and how we respond to and process conflict that can change our wildfire stories, our conflict stories from ones of pursuing desired outcomes, from ones that are shallow and label us and define us by our past, to stories that restore relationships, and transform justice into a dynamic force that propels us to a hopeful and productive future. 


God bless you. I'll see you next time.
