Hello everyone,did you heard this word already,hehe,it’s not just a name guys it’s a new words for “gossiper and chissmosa”.So sad,about this name,I just heard this news last night on a Tv station.Here in Philippines,people like to invent word to make a trend,just like “major,major”,by Ms.Venus Raj,which is not in a vocabulary or English Dictionary.

Marites is the word,which derived from the words that goes,”Mare anong latest na balita?And the word Mare + test =Marites.

Is anybody here named Marites?If you were named Marites,it’s not you with what I’m going to talk about,it’s just why did people have come up to this word.But let me ask you,if you were named like this,would you be offended and sorry for mentioning this name.

Marites was now labeled for gossiper or a person who really want to know about what’s the latest happening with others life.They are in the roadside,bench,market,and even in chat group .Personally,I admit that I’m a Marites sometimes,yes,I don’t want to pretend that I’m good enough to say that I didn’t like gossip,but not to the point of telling it to the whole society,it’s just me and my close friend,but it’s still the same.

One thing,that really makes me think last night,when their was a psychologist interviewed by the field reporter, she said that,”people who likes gossip has a low “self-esteem”.The truth hurts right,why did the psychologist said that,she said that spreading and talking others life can makes us insensitive ,that it might hurt the person involve.It is also related with the issue of being “mindful”,as what I have posted yesterday.She said,we should be sensitive and responsible with our posts and comments online even when giving our opinion to a certain story.

Most of the time the gossip is more on,”hearsay”, or humor.

Honestly,gossip can destroyed one’s life seriously and hurt physically.Just like today,gossip will not only spread in the neighborhood but it happens online,you just need to click the “Post”,and the “Send All “, options in social media and the humor will flee high like a bird in the wild .

Being a responsible citizen when we receive a story from our neighbors, how should we handle this?

The best thing to do is,do not post it online,and don’t pass it to other people,especially when it’s a private issue of a family.

Why do we need to responsible in this matter?

To maintain a good relationship with our neighbors, friends and our family.

To show that we are a responsible person,who cares others feelings.

We need to:

R- relate ourselves with their situations ,what if we are on their place,can it makes us happy when people looked at us and talk while we were walking.

E-ven If gossip is like a sweet candy that most people like to chew but let us just imagine that it has a poisoned on it that can harm us and has a terrible effect in our life.

S-how your mindfulness and kindness.

P-rotect yourself from fireback or boomerang, that it might happen to oneself as well after doing it.

E-at your words”,this is not good to hear, but it will surely happen if we talk about negatively and untrue things to others.

T-treat the gossip well, by having self respect,and don’t let yourself ,to become a source of fire.

What if we become a victim of gossip?

If it become too serious we can seek legal advice or call an attention to someone, this is an advice from the authorities.

End thoughts

This article may hit me also personally, and I can relate to this a few months ago,but just like what I have read from the holy scripture.

We should love one another, or love our neighbor as we love ourselves.It means we should not hurt others through this mouth of ours.Its just a small part of our body but it was too dangerous when it will act freely.

Lets end it here, until then.

Thanks everyone, my sponsors, readers and up voters .
