I need help with ideas for prompt, 'The experience of conflict changes people's priorities' with referral to the book, I'm Not Scared. Any idea what I could write about?

I did the context of 'Conflict' last year, although I didn't study that book.
For ideas about the prompt, I am presuming it is for context?
Highlight key words in the prompt and branch questions and ideas off of it. For an example the word 'experience' and 'conflict' could be branched together and you could talk about how experience is shaped due to conflict and how conflicts affect our experiences.
Secondly the idea about 'change' and 'priority', you could talk about the emotional implications of conflict and how they change what we regard to be as important or not and see if you could sprinkle in an example from I'm Not Scared and maybe some other text evidence could be anecdotal.
Thirdly you may speak about how difference and individuality may change perceptions on conflict and how they are dealt with.
A really good way to do draw ideas is, to highlight key words in the prompt (I find) and draw some questions form it. Try and explore your questions and sprinkle the prompt (varying its words) throughout your body paragraphs, introduction and conclusion. Then add the text evidence as support for your ideas in your body paragraphs.
I hope this helped!  :)
