Ignorance. and bliss.

Ignorance is indeed bliss.. it is smth i had always believed, lived by and even up till now still strongly hold true for me. however, there might be some misconceptions about ignorance which i need to clear up, to myself because sometimes i get confused myself.

Ignorance is only bliss when u are totally ignorant- not half ignorant, not a quarter, or not even a drop/pinch/tinge/whatever it is quantified as. Because when u are not totally ignorant, it means that u become aware of soemthing which jut means to say that if u want to be blissful, u need to feign ignorance, which is very much equivalent to self-deceit. And much as many may wan to be blissful and hence ignorant, they cannot do so- self deceit is not such a feat. trust me. it is at the other extreme of brushing off a lie as a white lie, although they are all deception.

great. halfway to the truth or knowing the whole truth really doesnt make much difference. the truth hurts, in whichever way u try to look at things. it reli hurts.
