"Admiration is the daughter of ignorance." - Benjamin Franklin
I saw this quote today and it got the wheels turning in my brain (ut oh)...LOL!
It got me thinking about the people that we admire in our lives. Most of them we admire because we're not aware of all their faults (if any). If we knew all their faults, I seriously doubt that we would think so highly of them.
There is so much stuff that I know (and have been told) about many different people throughout my life. Most of the stuff that I know I wish I'd never been told.
Honestly, I would gladly pay each person that relayed the info if they'd just take the stuff back and say that it isn't true; or somehow get one of those little flashy things that the Men in Black used to erase memories and zap me with that.
Once someone tells you something, you unfortunately can't un-hear or un-read it.
