So here goes..
Here’s why you should not GOSSIP, according to Socrates
In Ancient Greece, Socrates had a great reputation of wisdom.
One day, someone came to the great philosopher and said:
– Do you know what I just heard about your friend?
– A moment, replied Socrates.
– Before you tell me, I would like to test you the three sieves.
– Before telling anything about the others, it’s good to take the time to filter what you mean.
– I call it the test of the three sieves.
1๏ธโฃThe first sieve is the TRUTH. Have you checked if what you’re going to tell me is true?
2๏ธโฃThe second sieve, is that of KINDNESS. What do you want to tell me about my friend, is it good?
3๏ธโฃThe test of the third sieve is that of UTILITY. Is it useful that I know what you’re going to tell me about this friend?
– Not, really on all counts.
– So, concluded Socrates,
What you were going to tell me is neither true, nor good, nor useful
Why, then, did you want to tell me this?
