"Are you ever tempted to gossip?"

Click here to listen to Dr. Joey tell his story!

Sarah was a gossip and the self-appointed supervisor of her town’s morals, which means she kept sticking her nose into other people’s business. Most of the town’s residents didn’t appreciate her activities, but feared her gossiping enough to stay quiet.  

Sarah made a mistake, however, when she accused George, a newcomer to town, of being an alcoholic after she saw his pickup truck parked in front of the town’s only bar one afternoon. She told George, in front of others, that everyone seeing it there would know that he was an alcoholic. George, a man of 
few words, stared at her for a moment and just walked away. He said absolutely nothing.

 But George was a man of action. Later that evening, George, quietly parked his pickup in front of Sarah's house…and he left it there all night long.

 The next time you’re tempted to gossip, remember to be careful whose business you stick your nose into. It could wind up in your own.
