LET'S GOSSIP
You are sitting with a friend & juicy details about someone's life starts leaking out...
Your blood is rushing with excitement to listen to every detail & perhaps add a thing or two yourself.
Or someone just starts talking about someone and you just sit there, feeling good that they trust you and you are forming this new bond. So you lean closer, and you suddenly find yourself going off into details about how that person looks so dumb when they eat or talks funny, even though you really don't mean it. You are just trying to make the other person happy by agreeing.
Or when a certain warm cloud of anger surrounds your body and you really feel hurt by someone so you go vent about it. You come up with a thousand justifications for your backbiting, to the extent that you don't even label it as gossip anymore.
We all felt this way.
This destructive talk ruins people.
