Rumours are malicious and can cause so much grief .... and you know what I have realized ... if we all followed your dictum "First Do No Harm" the world would be a much better place where the individual does matter!!!<br />best wishes<br />Frances<br />ps I must say as Marie Antoinette the 2nd all those rumours of me uttering in contemptuous terms for the peasants to deal with their hunger .....

I too have missed your tale...Welcome back, Rattus. I too have missed your tales and musings. It's interesting to hear you talk about rumors from the point of view of a 5th grader. Sometime I will have to share with you the rumor that was being spread about me as a 5th grade teacher. They really do hurt, and it's amazing that people continue to spread them behind others' backs without even approaching that person to find out if it's true. Some people seem to thrive on initiating the rumors. What is it about these people and their own realities that make them want to focus on hurting other people? <br /><br />It's great to see your pen scribbling again. Just be careful when you're outside since our new neighbor has become a fox.Michelle Shawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06850834951250410367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1348597845342577731.post-87792718967902112632011-05-19T14:46:48.333-07:002011-05-19T14:46:48.333-07:00Heeheehee...Juvy Ruby :}
Great article, Ruben.
Ru...Heeheehee...Juvy Ruby :}<br />Great article, Ruben. <br />Rumors are indeed, strange things. We all seem to savor them...but it always astounds me that 'someone' has to first start them. Who are these people who decide to begin a falsehood?? 'Chinese Whispers' perhaps, is how most start. Slowly growing in shape, size and colour.<br />Funny, but I'm glad to hear you really were home SICK and not WELL and in trouble with the law. ;)<br />Thanks for dropping by in my green and white garden, to let me know you were back (though I had already noticed your name pop up in my sidebar, and was going to drop by and see you!)<br />VickiVictoria Sayerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01015227972951118205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1348597845342577731.post-50504212100698938992011-05-19T09:03:07.575-07:002011-05-19T09:03:07.575-07:00I'm so glad you are back and out of rehab.

I've thought about this in the case of Julian Assange ... did he do a bad thing, or did they just want to make him look evil? Even a lie can stick with you for a lifetime!Martinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13574063839585346586noreply@blogger.com
