Ignorance Is Bliss

Ignorance is bliss a cliche we often hear
Do people really believe this to be true
Without full and complete understanding
It could turn into quite the issue
Ignorance equals arrogance is what I believe
And assuming is not to confirm
That's being to arrogant to investigate
Which to some is a real concern
If indeed it's not confirmed
Then relaxation can not be obtained
For a complete state of relaxation
Nothing should be left unexplained
To gain an explanation 
And let relaxation be attained
Perform a proper investigation
So your ignorance can not be blamed
To be blissful one would have to be relaxed
One can't relax knowing something's untrue
That often heard common cliche
Ignorance is bliss says who?
