LESSON 6 - Backbiting will come back to bite you!

Its true! Even if you use no name and tell the secret, its still backbiting!
Honestly speaking, as far as I can remember I have never told anothers secret. Probably because I knew that no matter how hard I kept the secret for the other, somehow or the other the word gets out. And thats when it becomes my fault even though I was not the snitch.
The word 'secret' in itself is the temptation.
My secrets, no matter how small they are, has never slipped from my tongue. I guess I have trust issues!!!
Anyway todays lesson is about stopping yourself from backbiting because the truth is no matter how juicy the story is to tell, it will come back to you.

Scenario
Imagine a friend A telling best friend B of her husbands affair with a model. B finding the story too juicy to keep to herself finds it safe to tell C. C, who is unknown to A, tells her colleagues at work. One colleague finds it so strange that the name is familiar tells A's neighbour to confirm the story. Neighbour shocked at the name and story runs immediately to A to warn her of the rumours been spread about her husband.

I am sure you will love to know more but that was just a rewritten scenario of what happened. The real one goes on and on and on before it reached the poor wife. It's safe to say though that she will be careful with the friends she chooses.

BASIC TRUTH - Be careful of whom you share your stories with. Do not become that biting friend. Choose your men first with the mind then let the heart follow.

Also don't let that friend tramp over you, kick that ass!!!!!!!
