When you throw dirt , you lose ground



The rise of social media has made it easy for us to take to the web and share our opinion about anyone and anything. Quite often the opinions are deliberate attack or dirt throwing .

We have nothing to gain by doing this to others. It may make us feel good in that moment  but this can always backfire at us .

It happens all the time. when we dont like or having  grievances with someone, we turn on our negative energy , lose our civility  and we start to complain, condemn ,criticise..... Often we are unaware that these actions only make us look petty , disrespectful vengeful , desperate and in fact plain ugly!  The negative comments that we hurl on others not only depreciate their reputation  but ours as well. What if the other party unleash a mudslide in our direction ? 

If we are being honest, we are probably all guilty of gossiping from time to time. Gossip is part of the fabric of communication and its fun ! But gossip has the potential of  being hurtful too . And there is nothing more frustrating than a malicious story that bears no relation to the truth making its way through the grapevine . But gossiping doesnt just harm the victim, the gossiper gets it too. Once  a person is known to be a gossiper , people will start to think twice about trusting him/ her.

"When you throw dirt at someone , you almost always get some on yourself. "  Wouldnt it be good  if   politicians  can abide by this ?
