"Be sure that the ins and outs of your individuality are no mystery to Him; and one day they will no longer be a mystery to you. The mould in which a key is made would be a strange thing, if you had never seen a key: and the key itself a strange thing if you had never seen a lock. Your soul has a curious shape because it is a hollow made to fit a particular swelling in the infinite contours of the divine substance..." C.S. Lewis

I have recently finished The Problem of Pain and can't keep the last chapter out of my head. So beautiful. I love how Lewis explains the mystery of our longings. I highly recommend this book, though lets be honest, I would highly recommend anything by C.S. as would a ton of other people.

All I can hear is your voice right now, asserting "C.S. Lewis is SO NOT OVERRATED." So true. Thanks for this.
