I love the distinction of truth being misery and a lack of knowledge of truth being a happy little life. As I’ve grown older, the more this has become evident.
There are a lot of beautiful truths, but there are truths that just open your eyes to how much is wrong here.

On the surface, that sounds ridiculous! Why wouldn’t He want us to know what good and evil is?
Perhaps He wanted to protect our hearts. Who knows.
