In relation to this phrase is "What you don't know, cannot hurt you". A lot of people would regard this as a true statement. We live our lives ignoring the things we see as being not directly important to us. How would that affect me? What does that have to do with anything?
There is a lot that we are unaware of in each others lives. The assumption that something is happening for a reason is still an assumption. Assuming is a quick form of not understanding. To understand something or someone, is something that more people should take more time doing. The next time someone is acting differently, try to understand as to maybe what the reason is. There maybe an unknown cause as to the changes they're experiencing. Understanding is a part of growing up. Growing up is inevitable, no matter the maturity rate.
The ability to understand and possibly help another human being is a rewarding experience. My point to this small discussion is to be able to slow down a bit, think rationally, and be understanding. Understanding what is around you will give you experience and knowledge in any future situation.
So is ignorance really bliss? Some may still see it that way, but to ignore whats around you will only limit you in the long run. Life isn't about sticking to what you know, but to learn and expand your horizons. Treat people the way you would want to be treated. Thrive.
