How to use "Joylessness" in context?
There is a pervasive feeling of emptiness and detachment from both people and things in the modern world. It seems as if we have lost our way, as if the once bright beacon of joy has been extinguished.
But where has joy gone?
Is it lost in the chaos of the world?
Or has it been stolen away by heartless people and circumstances?
joylessness seems to be a rampant problem in our society. Too often, we find ourselves living in a world without any sense of joy or happiness.
Perhaps it is because we have lost sight of what brings us happiness in the first place.
