Description
Gossips, it’s a cancer on our community, it’s where opinions and assumptions become facts. We all know one or more of them they tell you the stories of current and former partners, neighbors and friends, we listen and chuckle and in to many cases repeat what we’ve heard.
And so spreads the cancer! The thing most don’t realize is as we listen to them go on and on is that they don’t just talk about others, they’re also talking about YOU! (That’s their nature) And you are judged along with the rest of us many times on what is absolutely just NOT true!
It’s a sickness of people that are unhappy in their own lives and a tool to take focus off of self. Many times they actually love (or say they do) the very people they gossip about never realizing the damage they are doing.
When you confide in a friend and tell them of a problem you’re having, that’s not gossip, when that person starts telling others that’s gossip and sometimes it’s weaponized and used against you to degrade you to make you the bad guy when it’s just an opinion and has no bearing in fact.
There’s an old saying we should all keep in mind. “ what we say of others says more about us than it does about them “
