The Adolescent Mindset

I want to be younger to the point where i didn't give a damn what i looked like and have that mentality of Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden when they where naked and it didn't bother them. Realistically i would like to be an infant and not have a worry in the world and be ignorant to the struggles of life. They say that ignorance is bliss and i truly believe it but there has to be a point where ignorance will make men look idiotic, but if that is what it has to come down to, Then i choose to be ignorant to life and all it's harsh truth's and fact's

When they coined the ignorance is bliss quote I take it to mean the same as burying your head in the sand. Either way you miss out on life and it's events. If you do then that is your loss and nobodies gain. It's a harsh way of looking at life. Adam was the first person in history to know fear, I wouldn't like to be in his shoes.
