IS IGNORENCE REALLY A BLISS!

Some times I wonder, whether it’s true or not that people are really happy when they know nothing about the situation they are supposed to know about.

I can give you several examples which can force you to think about it.

One of the common and the most important part of our life is food. There are several things to eat, some god made and some man made. Some of each food item tastes like you are having a piece of heaven on the earth. Among them some are good for your health and some are not, some are moderately good or bad and some are extremely hazardous for your health. It’s true that most of them do not show the sudden consequences and that is the biggest reason why human beings do not care for the bad consequences.

Ok,then proceeding my argument, is it ok to keep on going with the bad food or should we do some research to know about the facts and myths about it. Later what should we do, if we found out that actually this particular food is not good.

Should we be happy about the fact that now we know the bad effects of certain food and we can stop having it? Should we be thankful to the source of information to letting us know the facts or should we love to live in the ignorance?

Continuing my argument I want to relate it with the medical problems. Not only by the food born effects but also some other health problems. Some times people ignore what is happening inside their body, they do not care what is going to happen to his/her body in the long run due to this disease.

Some of us don’t even want to listen or get into it deeper, or discuss about it, to know the basic reason of the problem and its proper cure.

It’s like a psychology of a small child who, when closes his eyes, he thinks he can hide his whole body, and no one can see him. He doesn’t relate it logically that he is just closing his eyes, and nothing will change just by closing the eyes, problem is still there.

Some time people just enjoy the moment, instead of thinking about the long term effect. You can not ignore the cause and effect and just be happy, forcing your self, to not to know about the fact.

Would you like to live blissfully in such kind of ignorance?

I would like you all who is reading this blog, please opine your views
