While I was in Holland, my missionary companion and I were invited to go to a large theatre to enjoy Handel's Messiah. The theatre was very large and from the very beginning of the production I felt like there was somebody watching us. Throughout the production I looked around to see if I could figure out who it was that was watching us. Toward the end I looked up and saw a young couple that we had met some days earlier. When I saw them, they were looking right in our direction. I waved to them and they waved back. I sat in my seat and felt thankful that my companion and I were acting in a respectable manner.
There are other times in my life when I have had a similar situation occur but unfortunately I was not acting the way that I should have been.
No matter where you are or what you are doing, there is always someone watching to see how you will act in all different types of situations.
The words of my parents ring true. "Remember who you are." Those are words to live by and I try to do my very best to live up to that high expectation. Minding your P's and Q's will always keep you out of trouble. I'm not perfect but I am giving it my best shot.
