Many people love to gossip and talk bad about other people. They will even share gossip and lies about people that they don't know, have never met, and have never even spoken to. This is simply the nature of people who have nothing better to do with their lives.
Others use gossip as a weapon to try to damage or destroy the reputation of someone who they dislike or who they have something against for one reason or another. These people are malicious and have no qualms about lying or blatantly making up false stories about someone in order to hurt them in some way.
Don't be naïve enough to judge someone else based on gossip or hearsay. Malicious people gossip, stupid people listen to them, and idiots believe their words.
Most everyone has opinions about other people, but those opinions are rarely factual. Even when someone actually knows the other person, you still must take their opinions with a grain of salt. You never know what is truly behind their attempt to sway your opinion of someone else.
Think for yourself and develop your own opinions based on your personal experience or facts that you have personally investigated for yourself. And be very careful about where you get those "facts." Don't be simple-minded enough to believe everything you read on the internet! Remember, any idiot can post lies and garbage on the internet; it is the new form of gossiping and defaming other people.
Form your own opinions about people.
If you must listen to other people's opinions of someone else, listen to both sides, do your homework, and then make up your mind. Most of the time, you will find that when you get to know someone, the gossip is almost always filled with lies and disinformation. And always remember. if someone will gossip about someone else, they will also gossip about you. Warrior up and think for yourself!... Bohdi Sanders ~
