[quote="Azdgari"](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[/quote]
I my current state of being, I'd really hate to give up wisdom. I KNOW that I will be living in ignorance. But once I become blissfully ignorant... I won't remember. However, being wise and knowing all truths (including the truth that I chose a life of misery over happiness), wouldn't be worth it to me if you can't benefit and make others happy. So what do you do with all that knowledge? Nothing. Happiness is the choice I choose.
