How long do you think you can ride the coattails of blissful ignorance? Isn't it flagrantly obvious that you are skating on thin ice... and equally evident that you're living on borrowed time? How long do you think you can get away with avoiding the elephant in the room? Have I been the unjaded enabler whilst my silence should have screamed to you louder than any multitude of decibels?
