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.

Younger brothers tend to surprise me with all the wisdom they have. My 12 year old brother Brendan said to me the other day when the subject of Karen came up "You love each other, you'll get back together. You both need time." Then when we were talking about a sappy love song I wrote he said "I'm sure its good because it comes from the heart." And Jacob the 8 year old has been going on all night about death & religion & god and about never knowing he just seems so wise when he talks about it. It lives me thinking "Wow. Where was I when this kids grew up to be so smart?" Take care all.
