Conflict is distracting. You can get drawn into it and lose your sense of the wider reality.
My point in this post is to say that when in an ongoing conflict that you are not fully engaging with successfully, you can be drawn into it and make the world out to be darker, harder than it really is. It is important to remind yourself that here is still "innocence and magic" in the world, and most importantly, there is still sincerity and integrity. People still habitually show others good nature.
I guess, this leads into a question: where is your focus? What do you pay attention to? The metaphysicians say that what we focus on increases...
I suppose that probably the best advice to give someone whose mind is intruded upon by unwanted aggravating influences is to meditate, that is to stop thinking, to be, to relax and observe with detachment the human experience that you are having and being. This way you give yourself a break from the conflict and introduce more health into your life (because meditation creates a window for positivity from the universe to reach you, the positivity that you have probably been wishing for so deeply through all your pain).
If darkness takes on a larger proportion than it actually has, then it causes you a depression. You get tired of fighting and see a world without enough love or value to sustain you. This I see in my face, and I realise that I have been making our world out to be darker than it is; I hope that these thoughts help you maintain a positive mindset.
