Ignorance is Power?

Acquiring knowledge is not always empowering and enlightening.

The world of ignorace is more free, and beautiful, and innocent. You are more free to choose, and create.

I feel sometimes knowledge does more harm than benefit. It is imprisoning you into concepts, and perceptions.

The hardest part is toconsciously choose to be ignorant. And say bye to knowledge.

When I was a child
People taught me Ignorance is bliss,
I was so happy,
Then I entered College,
People again taught me Negligence is bliss,
I was more happy,
Now I am in Job,
and People every day prove me,
Neither is bliss,
I am ruined, All happiness is gone in SMOKE

i think ignorance is bliss untill you realise that knowledge is power...

Knowledge is fragile, and illusion. A never ending circle of unlearn old, and learn new.

But ignorance? It stays the same.

Paradoxes in knowledge is just another way to realize the Illusion of knowledge.

We are ignorant anyway. No matter how hard we try to run after knowledge.

Same as a fish about the skies. Or a polar bear of tropics. Or camel-riding African Beoudin of Ferraries...
