How do we define gossips? Could it be the conversations between two or more regarding incidents taken place? Or is it stories and information not known by many? Personally, it is merely one of the communication tools and the difference is, some may be interested and some may not be, depending on their personal taste and favorites. Also, let’s not forget that people tend to take part in gossips only when they are not one of the main characters or perhaps, as long as it involves nothing which would spoil their very own reputation. This could be sarcastic but seriously, what makes you think that one discussion is a discussion and not gossip? And why can’t a gossip be a discussion instead of gossip? Even if the so called discussion or topic is among one specific group of people which is less than four and more than two, it does not make that conversation itself to not be gossips. We discuss problems, discuss issues and discuss questions; we debate, we argue and we fight over what we think is right or what we think is not in a discussion. Stories we’ve created, in another word, rumors are none other than gossips from the very first moment we started to pass it around, even among ourselves, the smallest group of all. Think again when we are to blame the others for spreading the news because we ourselves did it in the very first place and do expect the fact that there is a possibility of them taking over the job, telling the third parties on what we’ve told them. Do we all gossip? Yes, in our very own ways.
