Ignorance is Bliss?

Featured Replies

This statement always gets me thinking.

 

Would you choose to be dumb and ignorant, but happy?

 

Im just thinking about things and comparing different times of my life when I felt a bit more ignorant and seemed happier. An example being childhood, I just ran around like any other kid, not thinking of the world's problems, as I wasn't even aware of them, and hella yeah, I was happy.

 

Now, I know more about the world, I can read books, which I do, and get informed, but this knowledge, I cant say that it's made me happy. It has made me a bit fulfilled, and in that sense I'm happier with myself, but at the end of the day, not as happy as I used to be.

 

How important is your happiness?

You are getting frustrating with all your topics :lol:

Get used to it.

huh...this one is hard...i'm not sure that i want to be happy,but poor for example...the carrier is very important for me,at the moment i would do everything to reach my aims :/ doens't matter if i have to be happy with family and have everything or to be alone with nobody and nothing... :confused: i think it will change with the years

blimey, Reilly, looks like you're making up for lost time.

 

in most respects ignorance is bliss would probably be a godsend but at others I think I would want to know. if someone you loved had a terminal disease surely ignorance wouldn't be good, if you knew you could make sure that all the time left to you was extra special. if you were completely ignorant to the fact you would carry on as normal.

at other times, I wish that i didn't know things because it does me no use whatsoever to hodl that particular piece of information.

During childhood, it might be good to not know some things...it'd be too overwhelming. But when we're older we need to know certain things, otherwise we'll just discover them on our own...and they'll hit you hard

I always see dumb people are happy and smart people are bitter!

ignorance can be bliss can't it ... but thats because you aren't taking in reality and what is really happening around you ....

 

its possible to have real bliss where actually everything is fantastic, perhaps this is what all people strive to acheive? ... and i reckon 100% fail to have bliss throughout their whole life, no matter how much in love you are or how much money you have .. it doesn't always make you happy ....

 

i think one of the main ways to achieve bliss is through being in love with someone that you fully trust and know that they love you in the same way you love them .. this reassurance is actually incredibly difficult to come across .... you will always have girls like Mafe who like to play with men's hearts and i reckon this works the other way round too .... :)

 

haha i'm only joking with you Mafe ;) :D :P

I dont play with men's heart!!!

I just saw the dog :bigcry:

 

aweful

People I belive you are aware that pic is fake, no?

Oh yeah, regarding the question NO, it's not!

I like this old topic of mine.

 

I wish I was more ignorant.

I am ignorant, so its all good, sometimes I wish I wasn't, Reilly you and some others on here make me less ignorant, which is good, for now....

  • Author

Thats my bad influence then :(

no,no its not bad, you make me think more about things, which is good, very good. My parents are always angry at me because they say I don't think before I act and all that. But you make me think, I now have a sorta spiritual side.

btw nice sig "Pingu- Formerly known as 'Radioactive Coldplayer' AKA 'Whisperator'" :lol:
