A Beautiful Garden Is A
Work Of Heart

The Influence Of Gossip


I cannot afford to overlook the influence
that other people have on me.
There are cases where people quarrel, fight and
even commit murder because they are influenced
by gossip, influenced by the words of others.

To what extent do I check that I am not
being influenced by gossip?
Negativity in the mind is like poison.
Negative thoughts are the seeds of negative actions.
It might seem like a simple everyday occurrence
- my friends tell me in the strictest confidence that
such and such a person is like this and does so-and-so.

I listen and accept without question because of the friendship.
My attitude and actions now become influenced by
my friends words, and I find myself acting and reacting
in accordance with the information fed to me.

Gossip and guessing bring sorrow, heaviness and distrust.
Poison can come in many disguises, but poison is poison
whether from an enemy or a friend.
