WHO IS WATCHING?

in #story6 years ago

A small town prosecuting attorney called his first witness to the stand. Mrs. Ruth, a grandmotherly white haired woman, sat patiently as the young attorney approached her and asked, "Mrs. Ruth, do you know me? "
She confidently responded, "
yes I know you, Mr. Tom. I have known you since you were a little boy, and quite frankly, you have been a great disappointment to me. You lie at every opportunity, you are disloyal to your wife, you are controlling and you speak badly of your friends behind their backs. You think you are a bigwig when you haven't the brain to realize that you will never amount to anything more than an insignificant paper pusher. Yes, I certainly do know you, Mr. Tom
."

   The lawyer was both stunned and embossed. Not knowing why to do next, he quickly turned and pointed to the defense attorney, who sat wide-eyed in his chair. The prosecutor asked his second question :  "* Mrs. Ruth, do you know Mr. Steve ?*"
Once again, she assertively replied. " Why, yes, I do. I have know him from when he was young as well. I know him to be lazy, does bigoted, and a man with severe drinking problem. He has the worst law practice in the state and has also cheated on his wife with three different women, one of them being your wife. Yes, I know Mr. Steve quit well indeed*."

The defense attorney nearly fainted.
The judge summons both layers to his bench and sternly whispered this harsh warning : "if either of you asks Mrs. Ruth if she knows me, I will send both of you to prison for life!"

END OF STORY

It now a common practice amongst people to care less about what others think of them. I understand this but people forget completely that we still need good reports and this will only come by being careful of our action and discipline. 

We most times know what we what to be but lazy toward grooming ourselves into what we what to be. But I am of the believe that, if we are conscious of someone watching, we will do better.
