But theres another type of poison perhaps a little more insidious thought poison commonly called 'gossip.' Thought poison differs from body poison in two ways. It affects the mind, not the body, and it is more subtle. The person being poisoned usually doesnt know it. Thought-poison is subtle but it accomplishes 'big' things. It reduces the size of our thinking by forcing us to concentrate on petty, unimportant things. It warps and twists our thinking about people because it is based on a distortion of facts, and it creates a guilt feeling in us that shows through when we meet the person weve gossiped about. Thought-poison is 0 percent right thinking it is 100 percent wrong thinking. And contrary to lots of opinion, women have no exclusive franchise on gossip. Every day many men, too, live in a partially poisoned environment.
