Have you been a Gossip Girl?

Nowadays, the saying "Pen is mightier than the sword is not at all applicable"..... It should be paraphrased, "the Mouth is powerful than the Sword"....

Not all words are kind to us. There are those who can wreck you and even stab your back, but of course, it depends upon the people we encounter. Great people talk about ideas. Small people talk about others and that's the bad part of uttering ungodly words.

I'm not being a Poncious Pilate, but i had my turn of being a gossip girl, and i admit. But those were moments that merely depends upon your company. It has a mixed brainwashing and a bitter moment talk. But i have to say, all are victims of meaningless jabbering.

Gossip and slander are not victimless crimes. Words do not just dissipate into midair. . . . Words can injure and damage, maim and destroy - forcefully, painfully, lastingly. . . . Plans have been disrupted, deals have been lost, companies have fallen, because of idle gossip or malicious slander. Reputations have been sullied, careers have been ruined, lives have been devastated, because of cruel lies or vicious rumors. . . . Your words have such power to do good or evil that they must be chosen carefully, wisely, and well...

Most of the times, the people doin' these acts are those who lacks attention...they need to have a place to be noticed... They make rumors and form a very rude remarks that injures the sufferer.

Minding your own business . . . includes [avoiding] eavesdropping, gossiping, talking behind other people's backs, and analyzing or trying to figure out other people..

All i can suggest, If you can't say something nice, shut up!
