We slaughter one another in our words and attitudes. We slaughter one another in the stereotypes and mistrust that linger in our heads, and the words of hate we spew from our lips.
Unkind language is sure to produce the fruits of unkindness--that is, suffering in the bosom of others.
Good newes may bee told at any time, but ill in the morning.
Gossip harms relationships and that's why it's bad. While we all do it at times, there's a point where it crosses the line and becomes bullying if it damages friendships and causes people to dislike someone.
Gossip is a kind of misalignment with people around you. You can either gossip about everyone, or you can become one with everyone.
Gossip and rumor are evil; easy to lift up, heavy to carry, and hard to put down again.
Trash talk is poisonous and a bad habit!
If you speak insults you will hear them also.
Idiot wind, blowing every time you open your mouth.
Negative talking is contagious.
When you say something really unkind, when you do something in retaliation your anger increases. You make the other person suffer, and he will try hard to say or to do something back to get relief from his suffering. That is how conflict escalates.
Gossip is irresponsible communication. Irresponsible because it is at the expense of another person who is not there to defend herself. Irresponsible because it is not constructive: it helps no one, least of all the person being gossiped about.
It makes me sad, the way human beings talk smack. It's why I don't like irony. People are too gleeful to put some teeth into something.
It's just a big excuse to say awful things.
