Sometimes...

in philosophy •  7 years ago 

"Sometimes people don't want to hear the truth because they don't want their illusions destroyed. " Nietzsche? I don't know for sure if Nietzsche said or wrote those words, but it doesn't matter who wrote them. The words are powerful. A major part about life is contradicting your own ignorance and your own knowledge. Our lives are dictated by our own ignorance. What we don't know and don't understand dictates our lives. As children, we grow up believing that our parents know everything there is to know about life, only to figure out that they actually know nothing except what they've experienced or what they were brainwashed with by the education/religious systems of psychological enslavement. But, we are all still children. We should never stop questioning each other and ourselves. Be the light and shine. Good article. Keep asking the questions nobody is asking. Shining the light into the darkness
