dear.... you don't understand
he is trying you to glorify ignorance. he is trying to get all the people in this forum to say that the grandest thing in the world is to be both stupid; AND ignorant
He is trying to justify all of his own stupidity and ignorance
He lives by this credo
Don't-you-know?
All of the questions on this forum... all the meaningless polls... are merely hidden, cunning ways for people who are too timid to come out and say who they actually are, and what they are actually are like... and what they secretly want to believe deep inside the recesses of their souls...
hoping that others will agree with what they deviously suggest and hint at... by asking questins and doing polls
YOU should know: you do it also.
it is a sickening hypocritical way to live. forever being too scared of your own truth to ever confess it to yourself... never mind other people.
Why do you think this forum is filled with meaningless trivial pointless questions?
because that is what the people on this forum are like.
every single question asked here on this forum: with the exception of mine: have secret hidden agendas attached to them. Every little baby on this forum is terrified of being publicly banned from this fake non-existent niche.
Every one of you have a screanming need to be EXACTLY like all the others on this forum... you want to fit IN! you want to be ACCEPTED!' for who you really are!
But none of you are honest about it. None of you are honest in the way you go about scrounging for your social acceptance. None of you have developed the critical discipline of trying to be honest with yourselves. In fact: none of you are capapble of thinking honestly or feeling honestly.
Honesty takes Courage. it takes Courage to be Honestwith yourself. It takes Courage to be Honest with other people
You cannot have Honesty without Courage;
And... You also cannot have Courage without Honesty. Without Honesty: you cannot be Courageous. Only if you are Honest about what you are afraid of: can you have true Courage.
If a Scandinavian warrior dies in battle without fear of dying because he believes he will go to ValHalla and be praised for his butchery on Earth... then he did not face his own death honestly... he was lying to himself. Then he had false Courage.
But if an Honest person risks their life for something they truly believe is worth LIVING FOR... and also faces his own death without lying to himself... then he has True Courage.
The same is true about love. true love takes both Courage, and Honesty
You cannot love anyone if you do not have the Courage and Honesty it takes to tell the other person you love them...
As a result: people who are emotional cowards amd emotional liars...
In other words: people who lie to themselves about their own feelings, and who do not have the Courage to feel their own true emotions... often never find love simply because they did not have the guts to risk being hurt or rejected.
Why am I telling you this?
so you can understand how to live your life
the more you pussy foot around and are not honest with yourself and others, the more you get into the bad habit of being a coward when it comes to telling yourself what you truly feel, and what you feel about others: the more you will sabotage your own attempts for happiness simply by being dishonest with yourself and having no Courage.
