Gossip Kills

I thought that this example of gossip was perfect.  It basically said that once you gossip on someone you can never take it back.  I also thought it was great how a priest told this story, it really hit home.  I think gossip is basically talking bad about someone behind there back. That my understanding of it.  I think people gossip just because there bored and it gives them something to do.  I think that maybe they are insecure about themselves and half to make other people feel bad.  If people are gossiping about you, you shouldn't worry because you know its not true and it makes people that gossip about you stupid.
