You are probably correct. Your second paragraph has a gigantice sentence it. Usually there are nor more than three items in series. You might want to break that sentence up.

Well now, there is truth in what you write, undoubtedly, and it behooves us to be vigilant, but to live in fear is no life at all - watchful, yes, paranoid, no. I suggest there needs to be balance in life.
You make a strong statement - unfortunately, I think it is overstated. There are many good people watching too...

I agree that prevent is always best than the cure,
however we cannot live in fear that someone is watching over us or may harm us.
You can't see, forecast or predict the future... it's true, still we ought to live.

Please. If I can't see or predict the future, how can you?
What you are advocating is widespread paranoia.
I support your right to be paranoid, but I don't support the attempt to spread it, especially when you offer no substanitive proof. In effect, you are yelling, 'Fire', in a crowded movie theater.
If you want to change public opinion, bring documented proof next time.
Peace, Lee

A very enjoyable story to read. Short, but a book could be written from what is in this story. I love the way you give each word so much power. Thank you

I guess this fits the category. I'm not sure who in the world would keep gold jewelry on a road. Maybe change the last sentence to something like: "Don't keep your gold jewelry in plain sight."

Very interesting take on where we find ourselves today, though a little scary. Today, more than ever we are being watched and it IS a dangerous world. Well written. I noticed one typo, should be - (jewelry). :-)

I'm not really sure the intent behind this. Is this meant to be a warning to people to be vigilant? While I agree with the general message, it does seem a bit exaggerated to imply that you are always being watched. I think in some areas--those with high crime rates--that is particularly true, but in other areas, not so much. Still, being cautious and looking out for family and friends is a good sentiment.
Some of the sentences in this are awkward, however, and repetitive. For example:
"...keeping account of your living activities to violate your rights to living" -- Do you need the first instance of "living"? Also, the phrase "rights to living" is awkward. Di you mean "right to life"? Or do you mean other rights that people have?
"and secured self," -- I think you mean "yourself" not just "self"
"anybody or anything that you earn, acquire, inherit, get or obtain" -- As written, it sounds like the "earn, acquire..." is meant to modify both "anybody" and "anything". And it doesn't make moral sense to apply that to "anybody" since one does not earn or acquire (or ...) a person.
