I remember as a new priest, signing a row of people with the admonition "Remember, you are dust .." ...and coming [unexpectedly] to my very young daughter. The decades old memory of touching her forehead... the amalgam of fear and love and awe that blossomed at that moment... is so vivid as to be beyond language. To this day, (especially in my room with the door shut) I recall the shock that even now jerks me out of auto pilot. How can I describe the gift of even a moment of conscious participation in the mystery of the world, in a single shared life - in God's dream.
