Ignorance is bliss. Really. Why would someone try to uncover the truth, if it will most likely hurt them?

Because you can then do something to correct that which hurts you, and almost certainly that state of applied awareness is better than the one in which you were blissfully ignorant.

Are you saying applied awareness is better in and of itself? I don't know. If you are happy and you are ignorant, the only direction you can go is down, into the depths of depression.

I'm so emo.

You're so emo? Not so's anyone can notice ;-). Your criticism seems much more logical than emo to me...

[le_chris]

Yes. I wouldn't be a good wannabe-journalist if I didn't believe in awareness, even if the first stage it produces is one of unhappiness. From there, you can only go up. And that's not true; you can be happy and aware - it just takes a while at first.

This is a good point. I hadn't thought of the long-term. Good.

[le_chris]

Glad you approve. ;P

With my icon and all.

Yeah, I noticed that. It's a nice effect.
