Ignorance is bliss
Would you agree that "Ignorance is bliss"? Well, I do, but perhaps I should qualify myself. Ignorance is definitely not bliss when it comes to work, study or even general knowledge. In fact, I don’t think that this phrase was even created at the first place for the above mentioned categories.
Well, the reasoning is simple. Why subject yourself to more anger, pain, hurt, jealousy or uncertainty than what is required. Shield yourself from all these negative information and you may find life a bit more bearable. Sound like an escapist to you, well, not exactly. Unlike the escapist who reacts upon receiving those information, we are taking proactive step so that we do not even have to run at the first place. "Things that you don’t know, doesn’t hurt you".
