Fishbowl

Fishbowl
"I always feel like somebody's watching me" - Rockwell

What is a fishbowl? It's a clear container that you put water in for fish to live. The bowl is clear so you can watch them. Watch them eat, watch them swim, watch them play. Watch them anytime you want.

But what if the fish don't want to be watched?

Life can be like that. People watching us. Watching our every move. Waiting to see what we do. But do we want that? Maybe instead we would want to hide. Keep some mystery. Cover ourselves. Cover our pain or sorrow. Cover our mistakes. Make choices without the world watching. But can we fully hide? Even if we hide a portion of ourselves, we are still visible. We are still seen. We are still being watched.

In the end we are all just fish in a bowl being watched.
