When malicious gossip or slander is passed along, the humanity of three people is thereby diminished .... the one who repeats the gossip, the one who listens to the gossip, and the one who is the subject of the gossip. When a person refrains from gossiping or tale-bearing, the angels rejoice from up above.

Your friendship will always mean a lot to me too, Mal. Wherever you go on your journey, know I am with you my friend, with love and support. We all fight it sometimes. Hold on tightly to God and all the positives in your life. And therapy can be helpful too if you find the right counselor. So many of us need that kind of intervention when we hit an impasse. Life can sure throw us some nasty curves. But you can't keep a good woman down! I love you, and again I am always with you and in your corner.
