I dont deserve it

Take that how you will

hmmm.

I guess what it all comes down to is the fact that nothing ever really changes. We can get older [wiser?] make more mistakes, change our name, change our address, change our friends and phonebook and weekend activities...

... but in the end we're all still the same confused, fucked-up, misguided people with little to no idea what is really going on.

I love how we all pretend to have a grasp though. Everyone in this forum. Fuck - everyone I've ever met. In the end we're all just drifting or falling and flying or diving into something [anything] just so we're not surrounded by nothing.

I don't care what anyone says. That lawyer working 80 hour weeks has as much of an idea of what's important as that boy on the street corner with a pocket full of change and nowhere to sleep.

I'm angry tonight. And I don't know why. Actually yes I do. It's because I don't think this shit is ever going to change.

I don't know if this makes sense to anyone but me because I'm just typing thoughts out as fast as they come into my head and I can't be bothered editing/ censoring/ controlling.

/end pointless rant

Yet, I know people who are settled and content.

Is it because we question, that we are never satisfied?

Anyway, Ant, you never fail to amaze me. Your words are so simple, yet so powerful. I'm impressed.
 
It's an oft said sentiment.

Keej and I have been discussing this topic ever since I met him and even though we keep coming up with new points we still always decide we'd rather be questioning and unhappy rather then ignorant and content.
 
ive thought about the whole inteligence relating to depression thing for years, seems to be true to me. doesnt change anything tho. ignorance may be bliss but im not gonna go bashing my head in with a hammer in the hope of brain damage. and i tend to see being "settled and content" as a bad thing anyway. having nothing more to strive for seems to be a terrible situation to me. what does it leave? sitting around stagnating, growing mould and waiting for death. id much rather the sadness that comes with (pointlessly?) searching for more thankyou
 
I only find settle and content a stage of something more, but that is just me. Stagnet is a horrible place to be I think for me.

Clever thought process and definately great responses :)

Why only an ultimatum between two very different states of mind?

questiong and unhappy!
OR
ignorant and content!

I highly doubt everyone is either of the two. Even if you are, in the end, only allowing yourself a choice of one or the other.

I would think that if i was always endlessly questioning (challenging if you will) then i am learning myself new things resulting in endless happiness.

Ignorant and content. If i was always ignorant from birth and it was all i knew, then this concept would fit just right.
If, however, i was consciously ignorant, then underneath whatever exterior charade i showed the world i could not be content. I would know I was limiting myself.

Maybe I just missed too many important parts of your debates, this is how i see it though.
Possibly, we are looking at this through a different lense.
 
please define what it is exactly that content people are ignorant of or turning a blind eye to...

the pointlessness of life? maybe we're the ones ignorant of the point.

lost boi: It's all just idle musing not a definitive theory. The topic has just come up because the smartest people I know are nearly always depressed or searching for something more while the dumbest people I know are generally more content with their life. I'm not saying everyone falls into those categories but if I had to choose between the two I'd still rather be someone who thinks a lot more about things and see's the [as harraser put it] pointlessness of it all. And yes, I really do believe this life is pointless... but I don't necessarily see that as a bad thing.
