Corrupt mouths

Proverbs 6:12-14
A scoundrel and villain who goes about with a corrupt mouth,
who winks with his eye,
signals with his feet,
and motions with his fingers,
who plots evil with deceit in his heart-
he always stirs up dissension.

Do you know people like this?  A few years there was a lady where I work who had been there for 35 years and must have felt that she had the right to say whatever she felt. There were times I would literally cringe when she spoke. She would act one way in front of people and then talk about them when they weren't around.  She was constantly stirring the pot. We all breathed a big sigh of relief when she finally retired.  She was big lesson to me...it's very easy to fall into that gossipy mode when others around you are doing it.
