Given the choice, would you lead a blissful life of ignorance or a miserable life of truth?
(in this scenario) Being wise will not help you change the world, or make other people happy. Similarly, being happy will not make you self centered and hedonistic. This is self contained. It's just a matter of you knowing the truth about everything and being miserable because of it, or being happily ignorant. It's hypothetical. ;3
I would be blissful. ^^
