Many people go through their lives sharing information with one another, telling each other the latest news, gossips and secrets. Most would even say that they can be trusted to learn such secrets like a the identity of a crush or password to someones diary. But what if there was a secret that you thought you can handle but in fact was not quite what you thought it would be.
Consider the hypothetical scenario of a friend coming up to you and saying that they had something important that they had to tell you. That this information is the key to figuring out the purpose of life. They ask you if they can trust you with this information to keep it to yourself. Your first reaction is probably to say "Yea" without much thought because to you a secret is something that you can keep and this is something that you really want to know.
I say that to say this.. "Do you really want to know?"
Can you handle certain information? Most people think they want to know the "ANSWERS" to life's questions but I'm willing to bet the contrary. The average person is very content with going throughout they're day to day lives in ignorance. Why? Because the saying is true.. "Ignorance is bliss"
To know makes one responsible, and people hate responsibility. The less one knows the less they have to worry about.
Its like the movie The Matrix however, many people would much rather take the blue pill. I on the other hand would love to find out how deep the rabbit hole actually goes.
I'll end with this question.
"If there was a book with all the information about the day, time and way of which you will die, would you read it?"
