"While i don't think the story was true......I don't have much to do with my family because i tell the truth....."
Do you see the problem with the two sentences that you yourself wrote out?? You completely said the opposite things! You repeated something that you believed to be untrue, that is NOT speaking with TRUTH. This kind of information is VERY VERY hurtful...you did not repeat it in the spirit of helpfulness you simply repeated juicy gossip. Just because you feel the need to speak your mind without censoring your thoughts does not make you right. If you want love and respect and communication with your family than you will need to give them love and respectful communication in return. You harvest what you plant and I think life is too short to plant the kinds of seeds you are planting...think about it! You can repair this...and you know how...you can do it, its not easy but I know you CAN, because you are a strong person!
