Hello to all who care to hear me SCREAM politly of corse,

I guess this is my way of being respectful and not saying what words come to mind at this moment in time. That BIG mountain of S--- is looking like its about to fall right on top of ME AGAIN and I DON"T think im going to get away from it.

I Am So Aggravated?

Why speak at all if you are going
to upset the future happiness
and balance in someone else’s life.
No one or thing gave you
this power or right, maybe you
should check the telephone pole you
have protruding from your
eye and leave their toothpick of
faults alone.

I find that life doesn’t afford the
expenditure  of this kind
of energies worth while, and by no
means loving or helpful.

Where in our past history has anyone
benefited  from our lack of
control of our tongue and if someone
made progress forward due
to this unnecessary talk, it was only
due to their self examination
and own need of growth that made
any real advancement forward.

I am so aggravated by this kind of
conduct and the fact that
one thinks I would want to be involved
in their dirty work. I make it
perfectly clear to all that may happen
to invoke conversation that I
will not participate in there slanderous
talk of others.

Why can we not love thy neighbor as
we do our selves, for we would
never treat our own soul with this kind
of disrespect.

By,  Cerenity

Boy that makes me feel much better.

I'm glad you feel better now

Sometimes ya just gotta come right out and say what's on your mind. People love idle gossip ya know. If I'm getting this right.

So just tell them you don't want part, I know you've mentioned that already. Tell them what's on your mind, respectfully of course. Hope it all gets better soon.

Cerenity, it may not be directly on target, but I love telling the story of my Mom...

she worked with a number of women who would always talk about anyone, any time. They were notorious for always beginning a topic on someone who had just left for a cup of coffee and/or someone who had just left their shift.

Bless my Mom, she didn't fall into it, but she did get terribly tired of it. One day, she brought them all to their knees. She had to excuse herself to go to the restroom...and on her way out, she commented, "I'll be gone for about five minutes, spend your time talking about me, and give the others a rest..."

From that point on, at least in her hearing, the gossiping stopped...

Hugs,

Sunny
