It was a day in late June, gray and depressing, with clouds hanging low. My husband and I were driving to Nova Scotia, Canada, for a much-needed vacation. We traveled tiredly, hoping to 36 rest and dinner before the rain came. Suddenly, on a lonely stretch of highway, the storm 37 . Cascades of water shut us in, making driving impossible. We 38 onto the shoulder of the road and stopped.
Then, as though someone had turned off a celestial tap, it 39 . A thin radiance, like a spray of gold, 40 from the clouds. Every blade of grass was crystalline as the sun flashed on 41 drops. The very road shone, and a rainbow arched across the sky. It was as though this beam of color had been built for us 42 . We could hardly speak for awe and joy.
A friend of mine has described a 43 experience. She had walked out on a lonely beach at twilight. It was a time of grief for her, and 44 was what she wanted. Offshore, across the darkening sea, she made out the 45 of an anchored fishing boat, and in it the figure of a man. My friend told me that after a while, she felt an intense and glowing sense of oneness with that 46 figure. It was as though sea and sky and night and those two solitary human beings were united in a kind of profound identity. “I was 47 by joy,” she said.
48 almost anything may serve as the motivation of such a feeling—stars shine on new snow; a sudden field of daffodils; a moment in marriage when hand reaches out to hand in the 49 that this other person speaks as you speak, feels as you feel. Joy may wait, too, just 50 danger when you have enough to face a situation and live it out. 51 the source, such experiences provide the most memorable moments of life.
What if these moments of joy are given to us to 52 that this is the way we are meant to live? What if the clarity of joy is the way we should be seeing all the time? To many people, it seems almost wicked to feel this radiance in a world 53 as ours is. But most generations have known uncertainty and 54 . The more damaged the world, the more we need to remember the luminous beauty at the center of life. Our moments of joy are 55 that at the heart of darkness an unquenchable(不可遏制的) light shines.
Joy is the feeling that we have touched the edge of something far beyond ourselves.
