Why do we spread them?
Why do we accept them?
Why do we believe them?
Why do we care about them?
When affected by such a thing,
It hurts.
Badly.
Yet we continue to spread them about other people.
What does it do for you?
What does it do for others?
It feels like rumors are like a game.
But it is ongoing.
When you spread it,
You feel like the winner.
On top of the world.
Yet when you are effected by them,
You feel like the loser.
Like shit.
So what's the point?
Rumors spread like wildfire.
Wildfire isn't safe.
Neither are rumors.
