The problem
with the world today, is that everyone
is always in other people's business! These days, no one has a life of
their own, and that means privacy is gone! However, lots of people just
"assume" what they see or hear is the truth! Just because someone from
over 10 feet away, over-heard Sally say that "John Doe smashed a shoe
fly, and then threw it in the river." Doesn't mean that John Doe really
smashed that shoe fly! Maybe Sally really said, that poor little "John
smashed his toe, and then saw his shoe fly into the river!" Maybe little
John really needs your help, but you are now thinking that he is some
sort of horrible fly squashing person! If you have any questions and you
really want to know the truth about someone, then go up to that person
and ask them! Stop gossiping, and spreading lies, when you don't even
know if the he-said / she-said stuff is actually the truth! Turn the
tables around! What if that person was actually talking about YOU, and
you were no where around! Do you want lies spread around about you?
*Before you speak, THINK:
- Is it TRUE?
- Is it HONEST?
- Is it INSPIRING?
- Is it NECESSARY?
- Is it KIND?
If you answered no to any of those, then don't say it!
