Rumors Fly, Truth Walks

Rumors Fly, Truth Walks

Yes sirs, RUMORS FLY, TRUTH WALKS.  Quite unconsciously, almost every tick of the clock, rumors fly around faster than the speed of sound.  And in this highly digitized age, it's least surprising that rumors fly that fast because of this [damning] technologies.

From the earlier generations, the perennial culprit are the 'LOOSE LIPS'.  And they were even touted [figuratively] to be able to 'SINK SHIPS'.  Taken in context, those 'LOOSE LIPS' did wreak havoc on the tranquility of relationships, of homes, of communities, all simply because those 'LOOSE LIPS' go let loose that fast.

End result ?  Irreparable damage and we do witness this almost everyday in our lives.  Debris of damage is littered across everywhere.  Relationships at home or at work.  Peace situation at home or even in villages.  Even with local and national governments.  So much is damaged because of 'LOOSE LIPS'.

Now comes social media.  We all embraced it because suddenly, news will be literally right at our very finger tips but NO THANKS to technology.  Although social media became the communications channel we are all dependent to, social media seemed to be the pallbearers of FAKE NEWS.  In fact, truth was an exception.

Any quick fix for this ? Yes there is a fix but ain't a quick fix because when you do the fact-checking, one post or one tweet can trigger a mass-driven buy-in of such FAKE NEWS and by the time FAST-CHECKING is done, it's just too late.  No way to UNDO.  Ironically, so many Apps now has the UNDO function [except for FAKE NEWS].

FINAL FIX ?  Always listen to rumors with a grain of salt.  DON'T take it hook, line and sinker.  You may end up with a ticking time bomb right on your hands.  Unfortunately, we are all caught up in a quagmire where there is no one solution that will fix all those rumors and fake news all over us.  If we need to re-educate and overhaul our self-discipline to become more discerning and judicious before coming up with either premature or half-baked conclusions, take it that way.  Remember, RUMORS FLY, TRUTH WALKS.❗❗❗
