There is a saying, "Don't judge a book by it's cover." I don't think it must apply to blog titles, because you can judge this blog by it's title. Let me explain.
I continually try to improve my life. Too many years were spent trying to recover years lost to a bad past, as well as carrying around the baggage that went with it. Such a long time spent in the hole of depression trying to grasp the wind -- well, not literally, but it is a good analogy for what I was trying to do. Just as you can't actually ever hold the wind, I couldn't do anything about my past with the exception of moving past it.
So what does this have to do with dirt dishers and rumor mongers? You see, I try really hard these days to not say really negative things about people nor to I try to spread gossip or dish dirt on people. Unfortunately, while I have been trying to improve my life, others have been rolling in muck and mire in order to spread information to those that can do nothing but worry. I ask myself why do that to someone? Why cause undo worry and stress?
The answer to these questions are really quite clear. There are people enjoy dishing dirt and being rumor mongers. Seems it makes them feel better about their own lives. I don't pretend to understand how that works. In fact, isn't that what bullies do? Dish dirt and spread rumors to make them selves feel or look better at someone else's expense?
If reading this post makes you uncomfortable or you are wondering if I am referring to you, I probably am. Don't bother to apologize, because I am not mad nor am I holding a grudge. Just think about why you feel the need to do this.
