the trouble with girls.

I am going to rant here for a minute...I am sick to death of women and their cattiness towards each other.  Okay, let me rephrase that, their cattiness behind eachothers backs.  "My best friend's sisters boyfriend heard from this guy, who told this girl..."  
I mean seriously ladies.  Are we still in junior high, or what?  Why the competitiveness?  Why the mean-spirited comments about one's children?  Why the need to call, text, facebook, email ME to tell about a certain situation in which you have not even been witness to the wrongdoing.  You were simply a 3rd, or 4th, or even 5th party to the person offended or doing the offending.  YET, you make it a point to further that gossip--lots of times even prefacing what you are about to say with the actual words "I know this is gossiping, but".  GIVE ME A BREAK!  I do not claim to be faultless when it comes to listening or spreading some of trash talk, but the more I try to take notice of it; the more it makes me sick to my stomach.  My JOY is squelched when I participate in this behavior.  It takes up much needed brain space that I could be using on interesting projects, stimulating conversation, or simply enJOYing my life and those around me.   SO, here is my official notice.  From this point on, I will no longer listen to your two-faced "story telling".  I will confront you with yourself.  I will turn the story around on you and make you aware of how damaging your words can be.  I will not passively hold my opinion.  I will stand up for justice and not be afraid to stick up for what is right!   ( that being said, if I have not a single friend left on this planet after tomorrow... it's been nice knowing ya)
