I had the same feeling when I first started using a lisp (which was Scheme to work through SICP and the Ableman&Sussman MIT course). I was utterly entranced by the simplicity and uniformity.

I really do agree that learning a lisp can truly expand the way in which a dev views and thinks about code.
