Just me trying to be honest with God.

“It is the stealing of the apple that is bad, not the sweetness. The sweetness is still a beam from the glory.” C.S. Lewis

 Opportunities for pleasure abound, Creation is saturated with them, each of them a gift from God's hand. It is only in love that we can enjoy each pleasure as God intends. Selflessness can enslave us to pleasure. Love can free us to enjoy them, not be enjoyed by them. God imparts joy to put the last touches on pleasures when they are rightly taken from His hand.
