Gossip Girl.. xoxo

"Let’s Gossip!”-the most loved phrase by all, especially by the feminine gender. Everyone just loves to gossip. As per Wikipedia, Gossip is idle talk or rumour, especially about the personal or private affairs of others. So true! Somehow we humans, derive innate pleasure by knowing and talking about others personal things, with obviously everyone’s addition of their imagination and thoughts to it.  

Gossip is not exactly a positive word, because we never Gossip about Good things! It is all about those things that are not to be spilled out or to be kept under wraps. On another thought, life would actually be boring if there were no Gossips. Seeing the bright side, Gossip helps in social bonding with people since we are sharing information with them. And plus, gossip is a good tactic to always be in the limelight. Good or bad, end of the day people are talking about you. That’s how celebrities and socialites, maintain their popularity status. The mentality in today's world is that the only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about.

With all the Social networking, World’s becomes a smaller place and even our personal lives have become smaller. We share our lives with others, allowing them to comment on it and like/dislike it. Knowingly or unknowingly we have become the person who would for a while want to forget what’s happening our lives and be curious to know what’s happening in others life. As they say, when you hear someone in problem, your problem seems less painful. How much ever anyone denies that they don’t gossip or not interested in other peoples life, a part of them doesn’t agree to it.

Gossip girl, the American teen drama television series, undoubtedly one of my favorite series to watch since it feels good to see all the drama, mind games and scheming, that gossip causes. But then, I can never imagine being a part of such drama. At times the fiction life is not always the reality we want or want to be in. It straight forward conveys the message-“Gossip creates the unwanted drama, out of lives of other people, in your life”.

We actually cannot say whether Gossiping is a good thing or a bad thing. The basic logic that too much of anything is not good should be applied. Yes we all can Gossip, since it is somehow blissful to Gossip. But sometimes we just over do it. We should keep gossiping as a fun thing and not use it to spoil someone’s relation or reputation or just make a big deal out of it. It’s totally not cool! Do we not have enough things to worry in our lives that we actually want to talk about other people’s worries, problems and lives and waste our energy and our peace of mind? Think about it and don’t forget we all have our own little secrets.
