blisses
Intense overwhelming joys
Blisses is the plural of bliss, referring to multiple instances or types of supreme happiness or spiritual joy.
The word appears rarely, since bliss typically functions as an uncountable noun describing a state rather than discrete experiences: the simple blisses of childhood, domestic blisses.
As a verb form, blisses appears in phrases like blisses out, meaning to enter a state of serene contentment.
