Ignorance is a Bliss

Was out with Thomas and Chye Lai for dinner earlier this evening. It has been close to a month since I last met up with Thomas. The last time I saw him was at his wedding. So Thomas thought of meeting up today to do some catching up.

I met up with Thomas first and we had a chat. I was telling him about some things that happened recently which lead me to think through a lot of things. During our conversation, we talked about seeking to the truth in the things that had happened in which Thomas didn't really agree with this point.

As I was walking back from the MRT, I was thinking to myself about the points which he brought up. Is the truth really that important since I already made up my mind? Some time, just by pressing for the truth may lead to a lot of unhappiness and hurtful at times especially when the things revealed are quite ugly and hard to accept. Why not accept things as what they are now and let the beautiful image of the good things that had happened remain in the mind as good memories and learn to let it go. Knowing the truth will not helped to change what had happened, so it is during times like this when ignorance is a bliss. Learn to let it go. :)
