Joy in suffering

For a while now I had been content with leaving difficult and tortuous questions unanswered. Hoping to ease their burden on myself, I fantasized that questions which perhaps couldn't be answered are better left undisturbed. Well, I may have ignored them, but they refused to lay down. If a thorn be lodged under my skin and it cannot be ignored, then I must find joy in the hope that it is at least movable and that I may someday in some way succeed in understanding how to nudge it. Inspired by C.S. Lewis's THE GREAT DIVORCE, which captivated and inspired me to keep trying.
