Mildew

Did you ever have to treat mildew at the walls of your house or building?

Mildew may not only occur at walls and stones, it can also come up in all kinds of relationships between people, for example within the family.

As the mildew starts slowly but might gradually eat into the material and gradually damage it, so conflict and strife might start slowly but gradually might eat into relationships and create damage.

As it makes sense to radically remove the mildew including its root cause before it grows further and damages the walls or even destroys the building, so it makes sense to radically remove the dispute and strife including its root cause before it grows further and damages the relationship or even destroys lives.

As the mildew might have a deeper root cause such as moisture, so the conflicts and strife might have a deeper root cause such as bitterness in heart, un-forgiveness, thoughts of revenge, pride, etc.
