‘Reconciliation and resolution do not always coincide’
Reconciliation and resolution are factors which play a colossal role in the lives of many; it can be questioned whether or not these two elements influence and complement one another. Realization in one’s self of their true morals causes a settlement of differing ideologies. Often an individual’s reluctance to reform their attitude is beneficial for themselves but one’s desired outcome may not be reached. Further, individuals may alter their views dramatically to suit a majority; losing their sense of just and causing contradictions of their beliefs.
In order for one to come to agreeable terms with others, an amendment within themselves and the way in which they view the world must occur. Often, an individual’s stubbornness and resistance to modify how they see a situation, causes friction and oppositions to clash. It is for this exact why “[one] can’t solve a problem by using the same kind of thinking [one] used when [they] created them” as suggested by German theoretical physicist, Albert Einstein. When an individual learns to interpret situations in a diverse way; varying beliefs can be taken into account and considered before a final understanding is met. With this skill one can begin to embrace society with an entirely new perspective. Such a realization is evident in the film ‘American History X’ directed by Tony Kaye, in a conversation between Derek and Mr Sweeney, where Sweeny explains to Derek how he was also once influenced by the hatred of his race placed on white people.

As Sweeney continues he elaborates that he was not getting any answers as he was “asking the wrong questions” and further coming to the realization that his view on the world around him was distorted because “[it] did not make [his] life any better”. Such a turning point in one’s life results in
