Gossip Girls............
None are so fond of secrets as those who do not mean to keep them.
Charles Caleb Colton
Gossip is always a personal confession either of malice or imbecility.
Josiah Gilbert Holland
Whoever gossips to you will gossip about you.
Spanish Proverb
Never tell evil of a man, if you do not know it for certainty, and if you know it for a certainty, then ask yourself, 'Why should I tell it?'
Johann K. Lavater
That which is everybody's business is nobody's business.

And withal they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not.

Count not him among your friends who will retail your privacies to the world.

Avoid inquisitive persons, for they are sure to be gossips, their ears are open to hear, but they will not keep what is entrusted to them.

Two years ago at this time!
Two years ago I met my two youngest daughters Mihret and Derartu. This is how they looked when we walked in. Peacefully sound asleep.
Then they were awakened out of a dead sleep and handed to us. They were NOT happy! 
And now we have this.........
