There are a very high percentage of people that gossip. You may think gossiping is harmless and funny, but its actually killing without maim. Especially, the person that believes every word digs deeper in the wound. Are you one of those people that starts the rumors, pass it on, or do you just let it fly past you? When you point a finger at someone you have three more pointing right back at you. Some people feel that rumors die down eventually, but they never die and this cause a lot of unwanted conflicts. You may feel like, “ok it’s done”, but just because your done talking about someone, another person isn’t. Normally, gossipers have a much larger secret that their hiding or they just have no lives of their own. So what are you hiding? Definition: Gossip consists of casual or idle talk between friends. While ostensibly value neutral, the term often specifically refers to talk of scandal, slander, or schadenfreude relating to known associates of the participants, and discussed in an underhand or clandestine manner.
