"...my mission remains unchanged to do what is right simply because it is the right thing to do.

That one can't be improved on.

Happy New Year,

How novel, I never thought of remaining ignorant as simply the right thing to do. But it does explain why you refuse to learn, since you view it as your mission.

For your condition I recommend the following two well known prayers (Douglas Adams):

Lord, Lord, Lord Protect me from knowing what I don't need to know. Protect me from even knowing that there are things to know that I don't know. Protect me from knowing that I decided not to know about the things that I decided not to know about. Amen.

Lord, lord, lord. Protect me from the consequences of the above prayer.
