There is the age-old saying that “ignorance is bliss.”
It suggests that if you do not know something, than you will not worry about it.
But in terms of dealing with life, this concept is not possible for a human being to maintain.
Complete ignorance may in fact be blissful, but we as humans, have surpassed the ability
to be of the complete ignorance required for such bliss.
Through evolution, we have come into higher and complex consciousness.
We have come to be inquisitive and analytical about the life around us.
We are the manifestations of nature’s attempt to reflexively comprehend itself.
No human is exempt from this, and therefore no human can posses the bliss associated with
ignorance.
Less cognizant beings like that of an insect or a reptile can possibly abide by such a
concept, but we are no longer on the same cognitive field as an insect or a reptile,
so we cannot live like one.
Therefore, we must not buy into the easiness or superficiality of human idiocy, for we
are all of an intelligence that requires attention and embracement.
You must work to achieve your highest intellectual capacity and resist being pulled down and
diverted away from caring about the power of your mind.
The pursuit of higher awareness and intelligence is the pursuit of humanity itself.
And if you wish to be in touch with your humanity, you must not neglect what makes you uniquely
human; your ability to ask “why?” and work and fight for answers.
When we ignore this pursuit and neglect an attempt to understand our being and the life
around it, we endure unawareness and lose all chances of ever truly experiencing bliss.
