Gossip Girl

It's a given fact that we are not close. I repeat, we are NOT CLOSE. I greet you because our culture tells us that we must greet the elders as a sign of "respect". I greeted you earlier simply to comply with my social obligations. That's it. Now that it has been established that I've got no founded relationship whatsoever with you, let me proceed to my point.

It's funny how gossip circles around the society. It's so juicy that people, both men and women, find it difficult to avoid. Did it ever occur to them that so much of their time is wasted just by listening to gossip? What more if they spread it around? It's either I'm just too disconnected with the world that I don't care about gossip.



Tonight, I gotta admit that it annoyed me when I heard this old woman tell me of my dad's schedule. So what if dad's out the country? So what if she wants me to know that she  knows a lot about my family? Who cares? By the time I end this blog, that thought is something which I've forgotten about. As for her, what purpose will it serve her? Will it make her rich, wiser or spiritually mature?

Talk about wasted time! If only she was wiser, instead of gossiping about my family, she could have enriched her soul by knowing more about the Lord, helping others out, or expending her energy on meaningful recreational activities. I honestly find her pathetic.

She's supposed to be a Christian! How come she acts so foolishly??

At the end of it all, one thing's sure...
she is a CERTIFIED GOSSIP GIRL.

Can someone please give her a trophy???
Tssss....
