conflict management....

recently had a minor quarrel with my sis, nothing too big a deal and we have since made up. but somehow, it made me realise something about myself..

what i do when i get into a quarrel with someone close to me... i would just keep my mouth shut and not talk. i would do nothing at all until the other party has cooled down(hours or days?) i had always thought this is the best way to resolve any problems no matter if its big or small... no point flaring up and making things worse when both parties are still angry... but... sometimes, if its just a small matter and a sorry does help, say it. it doesn't hurt to say it right?

isn't it better to quickly resolve things before small quarrel escalates into something big?
