I heard "'Ignorance is bliss' you know" many times...as if that one phrase condoned the action - but this one time it suddenly struck me--for who? for who was the bliss? because for the people who had to put up with the results of ignorance, or who had to pick up the pieces after ignorance happened, or those who were inconvenienced or discomfited or damaged or even hurt in some way or another because of ignorance...
.....ignorance was far - far - far - far from bliss....
