On living happily. In ignorance.
I must learn to live in ignorance. To resist. Reading newspapers. Or
watching TV. Or listening to the radio. No reason to know what's
happening in the world. Other than in my immediate environs. Because I
can't control the world. It exists. And stuff happens. Whether I'm here
on Earth, or not. So let it happen. Without my knowledge. While I get on
with the rest of my life. I don't have a dire need to know. Better for
my morale and my frame of mind -- to not know. To be oblivious of it
all. Unless I am directly affected. Better to retreat to my enclave. My
cocoon. Where I can live happily. In ignorance. --Jim Broede
