Backbiting is more grievous than adultery, and god will not forgive the backbiter until the one wronged has forgiven him
Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H)
I have to think twice, thrice before gossip.
Do not lose hope, nor be sad
Backbiting is more grievous than adultery, and god will not forgive the backbiter until the one wronged has forgiven him
Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H)
I have to think twice, thrice before gossip.
If you didn’t see it with your own eyes or
hear it with your own ears,
don’t invent it with your small mind &
share it with your big mouth
I was listening to BBC and the topic discussed was gossiping. And it was said that constructive gossiping can be turned into feedback and in turn will help for the improvement of an organisation. Can you believe it, they are promoting office gossip? Personally, I don’t think so. Let’s take a look at the meaning of gossip by the Cambridge Dictionary:
Gossip is conversation or reports about other people’s private lives that might be unkind, disapproving, or not true
Apparently, gossiping is considered as bad habit and how can we have constructive gossip? This is totally unacceptable.
Karoshi is becoming common in Japan and more women are suffering. Working at the risk on one’s life is part of Japanese social culture and it is known as selfless devotion. 24 year old Matsahuri Takahashi who was a victim of Karoshi, worked 20 hours a day. Can you imagine how much time she had for sleeping and resting? Miwa Sado who was the journalist of NHK, who did not have enough sleep which was less than 6 hours a day, died of karoshi at the age of 31. Hence, don’t overwork and make sure you have enough sleep and rest. Take a good care of your health, since health is wealth.
Karoshi refers to death due to overwork among career women in Japan. The main reason could be the multifaceted responsibilities faced by career women, for example, as a wife, mother and so forth.
We rise by lifting others.
