You can tell more about a person by what he says about others than you can by what others say about him. - Leo Aikman
This quote caught my eye. I suppose gossip annoys me a little. I don’t really care what others say about me, that’s their deal. But it gets old when people talk about others. And the gossip on TV, well, that is not for me either.














Yes, gossip does get old quickly and you know as soon as you leave a gossips company, they are gossiping to someone else about you!
Yes, gossiping for the sake of it just doesn’t feel right, but even talking about other people’s problems and apparently showing concern for them can really be more about feeling superior because we don’t have those problems ourselves! We need to be aware of why we’re saying what we’re saying. Are we really trying to help or are we just gloating?
