Whoever gossips to you will gossip about you.
Spanish Proverb
Listen to the whisper, gossip has its own tone and flavor. It stains all it touches; whether true or not, wagging tongues cut deep, leaving deep scars behind. It irritates me to hear and horrifies me if I find myself giving into the urge to say things better left unsaid.Anyone who deals gossip will deal it at every opportunity. Nobody is safe from a dedicated busybody. Next time someone leans into your space with that special glint in their eye and tone meant to make light of their role in something so distasteful, pause for a moment and take a close look. Imagine that same face poised to spew some information about you in a negative way to someone else.
THINK ABOUT IT
LET IT GROW
THEN DECIDE
