Gossip
I heard them talking about you,
Speaking of the wrongs in your past;
They looked at me as though I’d asked,
Oh, they spoke of your wrongs so free,
And the love in my heart grew and grew,
For it was your wrongs which charmed me.

Gossip...I am most certainly not a big fan...not a fan at all...typically when it's done, the ones with the issue are the one's with their mouths moving...

Yup! You have it covered, Taryn. The loudest gossiper is the most vulnerable. They are so paranoid they love to attack others trying to keep prying eyes off himself. What a terrible way to go through life.

Oh! Touche! Well done, Jerry!
Even gossip has a silver lining. It weeds out those who would believe what they hear from your life by not only revealing their true character, but feelings about you. The least bit of jealousy and resentment will latch onto gossip.

Yes, it does tell us what kind of person who gossips really is, Ahavati. But in the meantime they can, and do say things which has been known destroy a most sensitive soul.

Many, many thanks, flower. When we start "listening" to gossip we are as bad as the gossiper. You know whereas you speak oh intelligent one.
