Gossiping Hurts!!

This week gossiping has been all around me. So I thought I'd share with you guys how much gossiping hurts. As you probably know ,once you say something you can't take it back. Even if its a small thing it hurts. It starts going around and around and around. Even if you just tell one person as a secret there is a big chance that they will blab. Once the word starts going around it gets twisted up and then the person or people finally hear it. I think that gossiping is absolutely wrong once I hear a rumor I just want no part of it. Once the word starts going around don't blame it on the first person you told because you shouldn't have started the rumor in the first place.

Tip: Never tell anyone a secret about anyone else, so if the person blabs it won't be as bad as people hating you for spreading somebodies business ar0und.

Let’s say you have a piece of wood, a nail, and a hammer. Pretend the wood is a person, and the nail is the horrible rumor about that person. If you hammer in the nail, you’re hurting him or her. If you then pull out the nail…well, there’s still a hole in the wood, and the damage has been done.
If you are victim of gossip you should find out who the people that are gossiping about you are and be direct with them. Only tell your business to your close friends that you can trust or nobody at all. If the gossip continues speak to a guidance counselor about it and they will have talk with the person or the people that are hurting you.

Everywhere you go there is going to be gossip. Children, teens, and even adults gossip. It's just important to keep rumors you hear to yourself and not spread it even more and don't start rumors because you will never be able to fix them. The cycle is just to long.
