(revised) Blog I: The Cave and I

Many people live surround by ignorance and most of the time they do not want to hear the truth because they feel comfortable having an illusion or doing things that may affect them. For instance, when I was in high school, my math teacher used to smoke all the time. One day almost the whole class told him what the consequences would be if he kept smoking, and the funniest part was that the teacher knew that the students were right but he did not pay attention and kept smoking.

On the other hand, I prefer to face the truth and avoid living in completely ignorance.There are many things to learn in this world, therefore, it is important to explore new things. Many people are afraid of knowing the truth because it might be painful.but in reality what matter is avoid being ignorant. For example, sometimes my younger brother says something wrong and every time I try to help him, he does not want to be helped even though he knows he is wrong. That happen often with some people, they do not want to be helped by others. In my opinion, i consider knowledge very important. We have to go out of the cave and learn and see what is outside, the reality.
