Conscience: The World's Plaster Of Paris!


Conscience is one substance that stands very remarkably in the human composition. Its remarkableness finds focus in its conscious coordination of the human mind. But how many in our world today have given the conscience its right of place? How many indeed respond to its leading? Which explains the unrestricted skirmishes we've continuously found our world in.

But then what is the conscience?

Conscience is the human guiding factor, whose nature is programmed to detest wrong and extol right decision. The conscience is a natural package that bears no discrimination. It is so to say, a metaphorical effect of fashion prided by all individuals; a distinct aspect of the human personality which we all share together in common irrespective of social stratum, creed and age.

The conscience finds a unanimity that is devoid of any ambiguity in all of living creatures and the prominent amongst the common identity we bear as humans. It is a single voice that resounds in all human beings; having the same and undivided coating.

The world in which we live wouldn’t have being a theatrical arena of established order with defined coordination save for the spark that is the human consciousness in us and which we proud with as a common embodiment. An escalating surge in lawlessness, wanton orgy of unrestrained disorderliness and a heightened confusion would sure have being the prevailing state of general affairs.

Humans would have been no less than the unfettered beasts of the forests in attitude and overall behaviourism. Like the other animal creatures, he would had being into despicable and horrifying things without reprieve or caution; since the ultimate goal would be to achieve personal satisfaction.

Without the presence of the conscience, man’s relationship with his neighbour would be that of incessant disaffection and one of a recurrence of brouhahas. This is because, like the wreaking storm, man would be daft to remorse for all his inactions no matter the reflecting gravity. Of course, that would not have been actions adduced to a heart that is overtly wicked and ruthless with sheer disregard for the others’ feelings.

That assumption would certainly be out of place; for man by his very nature would have being an entity devoid of salient discretionary overviews of good and right; a beast by natural leaning. Thus, chaos which however would be detested becomes the sustained existential order.

But, that hypothetical description, horrible as it is, is not reflective of the state of our universe as we have it; the one which nature and providence have given to us. Rather, on the contrary, our world of existential reality is one that is structured upon and sustained by the fulcrum of serenity and instilled orderliness. This pivot is given credence and leverage by formed principles, norms and values which are rooted in non-suggestible thoughts and precepts of conscientious individuals.

Essentially then, even in the innervating face of the surging escalation in lawlessness and instability, the world-segment of conflicting inclinations and leanings of faith, race and land are still held together by the adhesive force of a common posterity, espoused in the conscience, the human consciousness. It is the plaster of Paris holding our cracked fabric from disintegrating into shreds.
