Previously have been watching a drama. Basically this drama is about this particular girl who had the gift of seeing the problems faced by her customers by touching items belonging to that particular customer. So, one incident that was being screened in the drama really had me thinking.
The scene is about two secondary classmates who ended up attending at the same company. Girl A was jealous of Girl B since her performance is better than herself and decided to do something to bring Girl B down. So what she did was to post anonymous gossips/ rumours about Girl B at their company online bulletin board. Purpose is to get everyone to be on her side. In the end, those who saw the online bulletin board really believed the rumours!
How did it get resolved in the end? I am not going to blog all about what happen as it's going to take some time. Just to summarise, Girl A finally saw the light that what she did was really out of line - to write about something about a person and posting online in the bulletin board for all to see, and causing unnecessary misunderstandings. And the reason why she finally saw the light was due to a separate incident that had nearly caused herself to be misunderstood and become a victim. NEARLY because the girl with the gift had helped to resolve the problem. From that incident, she learnt to know how serious rumours can cause, she went to explain to the colleagues that the rumours are not true and even admitted what she had done and asking Girl B for forgiveness:)
That's how powerful a particular post/ rumour can cause. Cause others who see it to believe and cause misunderstandings among people. Sometimes it might seem like it's nothing. But actually the damage will be caused since people will take it as it is.
Rumours really spread faster and more violently as compared to truth.
Just ask yourself this 2 qn:
1. Do you believe rumours more than the truth sometimes?
2. And even when you know the truth, do you believe it on the surface? Or accept it totally?
There's no need for me to stress on it. But then I think you should have the idea of how powerful rumours can get.

What you think it might be, might not necessary be the truth....
Don't assume!
