joy.

" Joy is  d i s t i n c t
from pleasure in general
but even from  a e s t h e t i c  pleasure

It must have the stab
the pang
the  i n c o n s o l a b l e  longing

All Joy  r e m i n d s

It is never a  posession
always a  d e s i r e  

for something longer ago
or further away
or still “about to be. ”


- C.S. Lewis
