STOP SPREADING GOSSIP There was a gossip...later the person who spread the gossip learned that the rumour was false. The person was very sorry and went to an Elder in the community who had a good reputation for great wisdom to seek advice. The Elder told the person, Go to your home and take a feather pillow outside. Rip it open and scatter the feathers. Then return to me tomorrow. The person did as instructed. The next day the person visited the Elder, the Elder said Go and collect the feathers you scattered yesterday and bring them back to me. The person went home and searched for the feathers but the wind had carried them all away. The person returned to the Elder and said, I could find none of the feathers I scattered yesterday. You see, said the Elder it is easy to scatter the feathers but impossible to get them back; so it is with gossip. It doesnt take much to spread hurtful words, but once you do, you can never completely undo the damage. God help Us. Jumbo
