Ignorance is not Bliss | Part Two.


What we do not know will hurt us. It is our responsibility to understand; to find out; to ask questions; and to search. We are going to have to do that for ourselves.

Others might help, but the onus is on us to receive what they offer and implement them as appropriate. We keep making the right adjustments and fine-tuning until we get the desired results.

Jim Rohn puts it like this, “Ignorance is poverty. Ignorance is devastation. Ignorance is a tragedy. And, Ignorance is an illness. It all stems from Ignorance.” Martin Luther King Jr. says, “Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.

Jaggi Vasudev adds, “Ignorance is brutal. The brutality of Ignorance is such that it will make you dead while alive. “It’s fatal. It’s costly. And it’s for losers. You either get organized or get crushed.” (Donald Trump) “Bliss is knowing the full meaning of what you have been given” (David Levithan)

Ingrid Holtby lends a voice here, “Ignorance is impotence; it is fear; it is cruelty; it is all things that make for unhappiness.” “Ignorance is bliss for the ego; wisdom is bliss for the soul” (Koi Fresco)
