Why is it that ignorance is bliss in this world?
I am the one who is educated, so I have to deal with the frustrations both of this world and of the people in it who choose to be uneducated, close-minded, and uncaring.
Because I have a desire to learn about different aspects of the world, whether it challenges my ideals and lifestyle or not, I must suffer the through the negativity that accompanies this knowledge.
Because I have enough pride in my country to question its ideals in order to better the nation and the world, I am un-American?
Because I view myself as a feminist/euqualist and want to claim the rights that all people deserve, I am a man-hating bitch?
Because I refuse to live a lifestyle that condones cruelty to others, I am a crazy vegan?
Why am I getting so frustrated?
