When you know nothing,
you are free —
to stay stay ignorant,
to be devoid of knowledge,
to close off your mind,
to loiter in the hallways without gaining cognizance,
to be truly free,
or
to keep an open mind,
to learn,
to understand,
to experiment,
to experience,
to improve,
to remain humble,
to illuminate the path ahead,
to indulge in the deep end of perception and not be corrupted by the devilish world,
to realize that the world is full of knowledge and wisdom,
and to discover that every day you learn more,
yet reach nowhere close to knowing everything.

the problem is people often don’t realize that they don’t know – they remain so confidently ignorant. Takes a lot of humility and reflection to broaden the mind to learn more. Impressive write.

The choices one can have when one is aware that he knows nothing. The other aspect that I can think of is that a person who knows nothing might be in a zone where he really knows nothing that there could be a way out of his ignorance.

Beautifully said Vinitha. The first part seems like a good option sometimes, but it is the seeking and improving that we find ourselves. Loved it.
