Publisher's Summary
The experience of joy can be described as wonderfully lighted moments when we seem to understand ourselves and the world and, for a single instant, know the loveliness of living beings. Unfortunately, our experiences of joy grow rarer as we grow older, our lives ever preoccupied by the pressures of the workaday world. Author Ardis Whitman looks at the ways in which we tend to understand and experience joy, explains the difference between joy and happiness, and offers guidance on how to restore our lives to the eager openness to all the world that is so often the prelude to joy.
