🔥 Ignorance
“There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguments and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance
—that principle is contempt prior to investigation.”
—Herbert Spencer”
What are your current assumptions?…
In other words what are your pre conceived ideas about people, situations and circumstances that you have passed judgment on without investigating all the facts?…
We all have them…
What resentments do you carry towards others without investigating their side of the story?…
We all do it…
What Opinions have you formed without knowing the facts?…
When you get angry with another person, do you hold them responsible for your anger or do you hold yourself responsible??
Do you make decisions based upon how you feel about that situation or are your decisions based upon the facts of the situation???
Ignorance is NOT bliss…
Ignorance is a killer…
Holding yourself in ignorance to the facts will hold you in everlasting pain and misery…
Freedom from the bondage of self can only come once you have investigated all the facts…
Faced and excepted the truth of your reality in any given situation…
To put it in simple terms…
Have you looked at it from the other side?…
Most never do and never will…
Most continue to live their lives hostage to their own pre conceived ideals…
Without considering the other side.
Where do you fit?
