Everybody has a green light that they look for at the end of a stressful week. For some they finally get the hope they need to help them with their school work. But with the green light of your life comes with a mysteious story of what you want. This is where gossip comes into play. Gossip has made people become gods in their own mind and others as well. But it also can tear people down, especially if the rumor that someone started is not true. Gatsby knows about the rumors that go around about him bu the doesnt want to explain himself so he just lets them keep thinking this or just keep making up differnet things. Rumors can hurt someone very badly which is why they should not be spread around. Rumors are usually started by an enemy of the person it is about and then spread around really quickly. This mean that the rumor can travel around the community much faster than anyone could have predicted. The community will figure the rumor out eventually and the person that the rumor is about will feel terrible about it. People can never guarntee that they will come back from this feeling the same way as they did before.

  1. I'm thinking basically you're stating that gossip hurts others, so it should cease. However it is near impossible to get people to cease their daily gossip.
