Ignorance

people say ignorant people are absolutely ANNOYING... and i would have to agree totally... there are times when i just can't take ignorant people... people who knows that they are being a nuisance and yet they continue to be... imagine yourself queing up for mixed rice... the guy infront of you have picked all his dishes and handed the plate over to the lady to count... but he still stand right in the middle of all the dishes, obstructing you from reaching for the dishes you want... he knows he is blocking or maybe he's just too dumb to know he's actually creating trouble for others?

that was merely a mild example of how ignorant people can be... but then again... there are other ways of being ignorant and i guess it hurts more if that person is actually someone you know... ^_^

entirely sucked up into their own little world, avoiding all understanding of feelings for those around them... ignoring the needs, wants or even emotions of those around them... applying their own little set of principles and rules... everything seem to be running by their rules...


but there is also a phrase call "ignorance is bliss" .. what you don't know, cannot harm you...
true? hmm... i guess it's all about balance and sensitivity for feelings of others...

As corny as it may sound, everything in life revolves around balance. Hence the Yin and Yang philosophy to life. And the Chinese believe in taking the middle path, don't they?

I think people shouldn't be ignorant, instead they should be aware of most things, but mainly the important ones and learn not to sweat the small and petty things in life.

But hey, I'm one to talk, I have mild panic attacks for no reason at all. =p

i sometimes do believe that ignorance is bliss..anyhow is actually depends on the situation..as in the mixed rice case,just accidently push the fella away and say excuse me at the same time..LOL!!*evil me*
