The human show.. staring us..

Imagine if everything we did was being observed.
That our lives were continuously being viewed and nothing was hidden.
That it was impossible to hide... anything.
( a bit like that Jim Carey film, only everybody, had viewing access)
Yikes!!
Would we live freer lives, unable to point a finger at anyone in judgement due to our own 'stuff', or would our lives more restricted.. contained, as we deny our true will due to risk of exposure, upsetting others, or the fear of ridicule.
Those annoying little habits we may possess, like hmmm perhaps slobbing out when your partners back is turned (after professing to be busy all day) ‘teetotallers’ that drink secretly.. you name it...
Come to think of it...it could be utter carnage


On a related note..
Someone said to me recently often its only when someone dies that you get a real insight into who they really were.
Why?.. various reasons I guess, including the fact that some of us conceal more than we reveal anyway... but then also it can become easier to look at people in relation to who they are to us.. who we want them to be.. which is often inaccurate.
It's far more interesting to see both or all sides of a person, even that which is less appealing... well sometimes anyway :)
