Words That Are Spoken In Vein

Words that are spoken in vein

Words that are spoken in vein 

About anyone 

Can only lead to bigger problems 

That’s why I’ve never been 
one to share my conversations
that I may have had with my friends

And even with people that 
I may not know that well

Because it shows them 
that I have a mutual respect 
for each and every one of them

I just hope and pray that they 
would do the same things in return

I agree, but it also depends on the type of conversation. If it is something that brought a better understanding, sharing it is then the same as sharing a blessing, but private conversation? Absolutely. Gossiping is one form of talk in vain. Thanks for sharing your inspiration. Caroline.

Interesting write on the topic of keeping confidentiality with friends. Keep the creative pen flowing. Sara
