Some people choose wisdom,
Some choose discipline
Some choose the path of ignorance
Not that they are ignorant
But they choose to act like they are
After all, its not what you know that counts
But what you do with what you know
A man might know the ills of smoking
And even think about it while he is smoking
He might know the ills of unprotected sex
But still dive "skinless" into the laps of a stranger
So is there any difference between one who is truly ignorant
And one who knows but refuses to act on what he knows?
Or maybe he only thinks he knows
True knowledge is like a light
That’s shows the way to go when on unfamiliar terrain
Choosing ignorance is like choosing to enter the darkness
Shunning the light
Doesn’t seem right, or natural
But think about it for a moment
Are we not all guilty of this crime?at some point or another
Have we not chosen our own way
Rather than the higher way?
So why do we do it?
Is it indiscipline, or laziness?
Is it some form of inherent nature?
Is there an intrinsic spirit of rebellion in everyman?
Or are we naturally primed to self destruct?
For some this may be true
But for others, they choose the path of wisdom
They tread the hard and narrow path of discipline
They abhor ignorance and seek for light
To illuminate their way
Why do they do this?
Is it an inborn spirit of obedience to truth?
Or simply a genuine love for self
Or love of life?
Or a hatred of everything that reduces the dignity of life?
Well, the way of man is mysterious
And the deeds of man are manifold
Some choose wisdom
Some choose discipline
Some choose the way of ignorance
What will you choose?
