A gossip betrays a confidence,
but a trustworthy man keeps a secret
~ Proverbs 11:13 ~

Once upon a time a man said something about his neighbor that was untrue. Word spread around the village as one person told another. But soon the truth came out - what could the man do? He went to see the village priest, and the priest gave him some strange instructions. “Take a bag full of feathers and place one feather on the doorstep of each person who heard the untrue story you told. Then go back a day later, pick up the feathers, and bring the bag back to me.” So the man did as the priest said. But when he went back to pick up the feathers, nearly all of them were gone. When he went back to the priest, he said, “I did as you said but when I went back the wind had blown the feathers away and I could not get them back.” The priest replied, “So it is with careless words, my son. Once they are spoken, they cannot be taken back. You may ask forgiveness for what you said, but you cannot take your words back. The damage has already been done.”

What is the difference between a gossip and a vulcher?
A vulcher lets its victims die before it rips them apart.
