Williams&#8217; answer is deceptively simple, but it is not deceitful. It reminds me of a line from the Jungel prayer I posted last week; it has been haunting me ever since: &#8220;we are afraid to share with others what you have given us&#8221;. Generosity is suffocated, squeezed out, by fear. 
So, what is it I&#8217;m afraid [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=cewgreen.wordpress.com&blog=2691290&post=448&subd=cewgreen&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

 By the rivers of Babylon we sat and wept

 There on the poplars

There is a joy that distracts us from reality &#8211; especially the reality of death. This joy is better called amusement, which, according to the OED, once meant:
