A love potion and poison

As humans we want to know the good and the bad about the things that happen in our lives and around us, and we should have the right to know not only the good, but the bad as well. Good is a love potion and a blindfold. The Bad is a poison and a metal helmet. The Good needs the Bad because what is a love potion and a blindfold?, unfortunately something I like to call sweet ignorance. Now what is a poison and a metal helmet? Bitter ignorance. When we know of only the good that surrounds us and not the downside, we have drank that love potion and put on that blindfold, completely unaware of any obstacles that may come our way. The poison in the Bad is our anger and/or bitterness, the metal helmet a way to avoid the things that the poison in our lives have caused us. When we know the good and the bad, we have combined the two substances together, therefore creating wisdom and understanding. If we chose to eliminate the other two, we are making room for other things in our lives. However, should we chose to keep them, it is as if we have a "Break in case of Emergency" box. there whenever we need it, there to back up either the good or the bad. The leftover blindfold is there to let our hearts make the right decisions when others try to shoot us down, and the helmet is there to help us keep in control of a situation, and giving us an open mind. You see, without one or the other, we are either stupid, or....stupid.
