wow, good question. Those who are ignorant will never see the world in full understanding of what it is, but those aware of the world have the pain and burden of knowing it but not being able to do anything about it. In the end, it does seem like the ignorants get a better life but I would rather be aware of the cruelty of the world.

Sometimes I think it would be better to be a moron... you would have much less to worry about.
But then, morons often do not know how to laugh at themselves... and taking yourself too seriously can set you up for some hard falls in life. And you can certainly be aware of the morons in life, but not feel a duty to clean up after their mess. Unfortunately, I have the tendency to try to fix the problems that a maurading moron has made. ;)

As has been said, Better a pig satisfied, than Socrates dis-satisfied. If you believe that then the answer is clear. Otherwise, keep struggling and be aware that morons are in need of guidance and a chance to be educated.

I am intelligent and aware of all the morons around me.
I married a moron ( Blissfully ignorant) and I wish I could be a moron for all time. This state holds fewer unanswered questions

John Stuart Mill thinks it's "better to be a human being dissastisfied than a pig satisfied; and if the pig or the fool is of a different opinion, it is because he only knows his side of the question."

Knowledge is bliss. It's better to see.
