There are far, far better things ahead than any we leave behind.

The line expresses a forward-looking hope: whatever is lost in the past—comfort, familiarity, even cherished relationships—need not define the future. Its emotional force comes from the repetition (“far, far”) and the comparative framing (“better…than any we leave behind”), which turns nostalgia into a kind of spiritual or moral exhortation. In a Lewisian register, it is often read as consonant with Christian eschatological hope (the best is yet to come), but it also functions more broadly as counsel for transitions—grief, relocation, endings—urging the reader to value what lies ahead over what is irretrievable.
