It watches us


 We all pretend not to look at it. But it looks at us at all times. It keeps a watch on us from every angle.  It acts like a quality gate for every decision we make. It is our own personal judiciary system. It makes us play the role of a judge, the convicted, the advocate and the witness; all at the same time. 


As we struggle to eat a pizza with the fork and knife, it giggles.
As we sneak out a paper chit to copy answers in an exam, it nudges us.
As we try to fit in a plush party with a fake attitude, it nods in our head.
It is our conscience. It just asks one question – “Is it right?”  and it is just this question that makes it so powerful.

  1. true...very true.

    But it seems that only some people obey their internal judiciary, while many others manage to bribe it.
