Besides exposing me to Lisp, SICP taught me how much joyful - not just fun - programming can be.

  Why exactly did it make programming joyful?

    Because it turned out Lisp is the language that comes most natural to me and I'm most productive with.

    For me, it is the demonstration that amazing things are possible, even elegant, with the most rudimentary elements. Scheme is a beautiful language because there is almost nothing to it.
