I don’t know what to do
I don’t know what to say
I don’t know what to hear
Knowing is what I am looking for.
Knowledge is both beautiful and tragic.
Beautiful because there is nothing better than being aware
Tragic, because once aware, can never go back to unknown.
Once you see it, it’s difficult to forget.
Unknowingly happy
Knowingly unhappy

Personally, I would rather know than not know, even if the information leads to my unhappiness. At least with all the relevant information you can form a sound position, instead of being mislead and maybe manipulated. Not knowing can be torture as well.
Not knowing can be torture only if you know that there is something you do not know.
When you don’t know that you don’t know then you can’t be unhappy
If not for words, knowing wouldn’t be that bad. No judgement is possible without language. Things just are.
kittykat, i can relate with you 100% , you see i know, “Tragic, because once aware, can never go back to unknown” This is very true, i’m not sure just exactly what in your life you maybe referring to, but in my case things got really bad, but there is a bright side to this story, it took awhile but i learned the next step and that was to accept the truth and deal with it, knowing the truth isn’t what i wanted to know, but once knowing the “why” that i was searching for all my life was pretty torcherous as well, now i’m not confused, disappointed for sure but i became at peace with reality.
Ignorance is a bless some people say. I really don’t know if that is true or not. I’ll just say that sometimes i wish i didn’t know things.
kittykat, “Unknowingly happy” oh yeah i forgot to mention i was never happy not knowing either. that haunted me worse than knowing.
