What Are You Missing?
“Our Lord finds our desires, not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased.” — C.S. Lewis

Oh Wow!
I might know that child...

Interesting. Might have to ponder this.
I know, it was one those things that just kind of wacked me too.... thinking.... "hmmmm...."
This whacked me, too.
Rather crushing, actually.
Great quote.
