To suppose ignorance is bliss is but a grave calumny, against oneself and against humanity. Ignorance is a menace, a cankerworm, a tragedy, a calamitous travesty to say the very least, the love for it, even an ounce, an arrogant and loathsome exposition of bovinity.

Ignorance is a deadly disease and we all are born with it, sadly some work hard to be stupid. You're a product of your decisions, your actions and inactions give shape, sound, visual and meaning to your life, each and every aspect of it. ignorance will see you lead a life devoid of truth, facts and honestly, honesty too, in its most raw form, the consequences of which are a myriad of problems, undesirable, useless, needless and worthless difficulties. So why make the solemn decision, overtly or covertly, actively or passively, to nurture and live with the chronic and cataclysmic virus of ignorance? As far as knowledge goes, You were born broke and penniless, those incredibly awesome brain cells in your cranium totally devoid of knowledge and information, of all kinds and in all forms. You were born with ignorance does not mean you should die with it. You've been living with it, happily and blissfully does not mean you cannot live without it, even more happily and more blissfully.

When you were but a toddler, you knew next to nothing, consciously unconscious of your surroundings, everything and everyone around you. In this state of conscious unconsciousness of your mind, you gained knowledge, in bits and pieces however. Knowledge about a language or languages thanks to your language acquisition device. Along with the knowledge of language came other pieces of information about life as you grew older, life within the world you live and beyond - religion, tradition, ethics, morals, etc. To fully and officially recognise, establish, augment an accelerate this process, you were placed in an environment exclusively designed for it. The process was hard, challenging and daunting, riddled with a barrage of intricacies and complexities, a substantial number of which you thought next to impossible to surmount.

In the midst of all these has your life been encumbered by highs and lows, ups and downs you never foresaw. But The more you knew, the bigger you felt, stronger, more empowered and energized to do more than anyone can ever imagine. Dreams hopes, ambitions and aspirations were formed. Truth be told, some were unrealistic, impractical and unachievable. But the bar has been set, the standard has been raised way too high to be lowered. The water has flowed way to far and wide to be scooped again.

Hopes are high, as high as they have been raised, expectations bubbles are all over the atmosphere. But slowly and steadily, they've began to burst, ripples of which have greatly ravaged the atmosphere of all your ambitions, dreams and aspirations. They're beginning to mock your every move, everything you say, think or do, the food you eat, the water you drink and even the air you breathe, they audaciously deride your every ride, making merchandise of your misery and pain, in the midst of all the knowledge you have gained, ignorance still seems to overpower and overwhelm all your knowledge, lies seem to have overtaken your truths.

Your impracticality is weighing down on your practical nature, your idealism is pummelling ferociously the realistic side of you, crippling your reality on all sides, causing the feeble walls of your world to tremble, so hard like they're going to crumble. And they will if you do not rise up, stand up and fight like a wounded warrior, turn the wobbly tables of your life in your favour.

They're not coming rebuild them for you, the broken fences of all your hybrid life. They can only raise you as high as they can raise themselves. So stop sitting and moping around, waiting on them before you make that move.

They have sold you fairy tales in a subtle exchange for your reality, now the real you seems to suck. If the real you sucks, it's not because it does, the distinctively...
