My favourites are still ataraxia (lucid, robust tranquility) and eudaimonia (human flourishing) but lately I've been identifying other subtle feelings that one can only describe with multiple words. Not so bad of course, but I'm just curious if their are any non native speakers present, or whatever, who may have a word to attach to these.

__________: the kind of melancholy that is lifted for ones being above its effects despite acceptance.

__________: a brief but vivid sensation of nostalgia for a moment you never really experienced to begin with.

__________: a soaring giddiness despite a calm exterior.

Needed for writing projects, so lit related.
