Calling someone ignorant isn’t necessarily an insult. Ignorance is simply a lack of understanding. If we are ignorant of a subject, we have little, if any, information or knowledge about it.

We are ignorant about all sorts of things, but that does not make us stupid; we are just ignorant. This is a crucial distinction.

David Gurteen

But the word can be used as an insult.

If someone is angry with you and calls you an ignorant person, they probably mean that you are primitive and uncivilised.

Of course, it’s not a very nice thing to say.

Look, if you had one shot or one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted in one moment
Would you capture it, or just let it slip?
Eminem

Are you thinking about taking up portrait photography? Or visual journaling? Or calligraphy or hand-lettering? Or even crocheting?

Take a look at Skillshare’s videos on YouTube.

If you’re like me, you’ll be inspired straightaway to delve into something new.

I’m working on making a dried flower bouquet at the moment.

What would you like to try out?

Are you someone who lives in the past? Do you look back and think about past failures, disappointments and unhappy times?

Learn from the past, but don’t hold on to it. It can rob you of the opportunity to enjoy the present.

Yesterday is over.

Enjoy the present as best you can.

And remember … tomorrow is a new day.
