RUMOURS

Rumours are like stories that people talk about that is not usually true. Mind you, rumour is an act of gossipping.

Rumour can also be a mixture of truth and untruth. In the sense that the story you are  passing might be true, buy you added a little bit of lie.

Rumours are started by gossips (people who gossip a lot) and then gradually and sadly, this false stories spread.

Why say something you aren't sure of or prolly know nothing about just because you do not like the person or are probably jealous of the person.

There are also people who hear certain stories about someone and finding it interesting, they help to spread it.

So, these people tell other people, and this other people pass it on to other people.

Rumours are started by a fool, believed by another fool, passed on to another fool who foolishly believes the previous fool and in turn passes it on to other fool.(please permit me to use the word 'fool'. I'm just using it to portray how bad it is to spread rumours).

On and on like that, the rumour keeps on spreading.

It takes just one person to put a stop to a rumour. 

Instead of foolishly believing something you have no idea of and telling other people, shut the person that told you up and make it clear to him or her that that's a foolish act.

Some people gossip about other people or probably spread rumours about other people because they want them to feel bad.

After all, no one likes to be talked about negatively so it's a good way to get back at a person.

But then, you can be the wise person. Instead of joining you friends in spreading negative things about other people, why not stop it?

Why be the fool? Why make people feel bad? In the company of a bunch of fools, it takes one wise person to make things right.

You can decide not to listen to them. 

As at the time I wrote this piece, I heard something about someone. I knew it wasn't true and that the person who told me just wanted to spoil the other person for no reason.

The anger I felt at that point was what instigated me to write this piece.

Sincerely, spreading rumors is so common; among young people and even adults.

Spreading rumors is a pointer to foolishness. Wise people don't, Infact, they have no time to.

I do not know if i was able to express my concern and anger 😤, but then be the wise person. Gossipping lead to nowhere good 🤷🏽‍♀️
