The All Seeing Eye...

What is the all seeing eye? What does it represent? As i quietly sat in Starbucks today listening to the soothing jazz they continuously play in there, i looked to my left only to find a picture of the all seeing eye on the wall, i then thought to myself 'wait, that thing is on the dollar too? what is it even supposed to mean?' ...my mind began wondering...i've seen this thing in many mundance places, it's almost subliminal right?

Maybe it's a sign that the government is monitoring everything we buy...everything we drink, everything we do...it's like big brother, the government is big brother. This eye is also on the cover of my favourite band (incubus) new album, Light Grenades. What is this eye all about? Maybe the government knows incubus is my favourite band and decided just to slap an all seeing eye on there to let me know they're watching while i'm listening.

This then brings me to my next point...what if life was like the Truman Show...maybe life revolves around you and you only. Think about it...you're always told 'Life doesn't always revolve around you' but maybe that could just be a cover up and an act for the show...or maybe it's reverse psychology to make me question whether or not life is just about me and then confuse me. The all seeing eye would be the only reference to being watched i would get in life...my friends are actors, my parents are actors...i think therefore i am right? ...prove it, said a recent article i read. How do we know our brains aren't just imagining our consciousness and such? of course...i don't really believe that...but maybe it was just another story tossed out their by the government to confuse us all, or maybe me, just me. This is becoming a bit egocentric............the world does not revolve around me...........or maybe being told that has brainwashed me in to thinking that and there are cameras hidden everywhere in this world, maybe there are cameras hidden everywhere in the world, but not just for me...for everyone.

Does the all seeing eye represent God? we were told that we should give back what we owe...if i make sense with that, we should give back to the government the money which belongs to the government. Hence maybe the eye being on there....It could be a symbol of war in todays society...violence with violence...but an eye for an eye would leave the world blind. Welcome to 1984.
