Rosa's Concepts of Love, Life, and Living: Living With Depression
Rosa Ann Crowder, author
My Life is Not Your Story to Tell
Are You Writing a Book About Me
Is that juicy nugget of information about me nagging at you, begging you to release it to the rest of your friends and the rest of the world? Do you sense the urge to blab about me behind my back to make yourself little more attractive?
It might appear to be a temptingly great idea at the time, to dump me right in the core of a humorous tale or an awkward moment. But will your friend think so? In fact, your friend will be examining your loyalty along with your shortage of tactfulness, wondering where the love you are supposed to have for your sister?
Some of the most excellent books are biographies and experiences that tell the life stories of other people. However, I don't want you telling my story. First of all, you don't have all the facts. Your stories about me are one-sided, offensive, and judgmental. Gossiping shows others your insecurity and mean-spiritedness.
