Will knowledge or awareness kills the happiness?

Recently dooms day put all the people on their toes, I too feared, I have a friend who never think about the surroundings and never bothered about what is happening in the world, he is always happy in his way playing, chating with friends, he don't even read a news paper but very happy. But it's different for me when I read a paper I feel unhappy for knowing things happening around the world like recession, robbery, killing of school children, rapes on women, some counties attacking on other counties, dooms day etc. I prepared for the competitive axams and I came to know some of the facts of my country and some other international ratings which are needed to improve. So by knowing these I always think the person who doesn't bother about others and his country will be more happy.

That means ignorance or lack of knowledge is a blessing in some way. I have to agree, when we aware about the dangerous and cruel things happening around us, it may make us sad, scared, angry etc. If we do not know anything… no annoyance at all. However, what is the use of living in that way, without knowing what is happening around? I felt living like a fool …no meaning. This is my personal opinion anyway.

You are right dear when we watch this type of incident then feel bad since morning I watch the news and check the news in yahoo not feeling well and think why God not support the girl and why support devil. She wants to live but God not wants this. She was happy when return back with her boyfriend after watching movie but with in a second her life is change. The police can understand when this will happen with their daughter.

You are right now people are living in fear after watching the incident of Delhi case every mother fear from her daughter because they are saying their daughter also goes in bus from home to school. No one knows what will happen in next moment. You are right we feels happy when play the game, chat with friend but suddenly if read the news about such incident feel bad. I think now cruel person are more than good person in the world.

I think we all have different views and we have our choice on how we are to respond to any of the things we get to learn, it won't kill the happiness, not the suspense, not the agony of waiting... i think if we respond to any circumstances positively we can turn things around to our advantage and be happy, be prepared and just know what to make out of what is left for us to take.

I really agree with you on this. The more you know , the less safer you will feel. My husband and I are different. He is the person just like you, always online, watch the news, home and abroad. He always tells me all kinds of news around us, good or bad. Well , I 'm the kind of person who doesn't care these things. I never watch the news, I feel they have nothing to do with me. When he tells me these, they go in one ear and out the other. I am always happy, and he is always in bad mood. I always tell him not to watch the news especially the bad new, he just can't help it.

News, especially the negative news can certainly affect our mood, I agree with it. Everytime I read or watch news, I feel bad because there are so many bad things around the world happened, even though it's not directly related to me or even even if it's happened in another country, it'll still affect me after all. And yeah, news always tend to show the bad news, be it robbery, rape, killing, and anything like that will surely affect us if we constantly look at such a thing.
