Who in the world am I? Ah, that's the great puzzle.
~ Lewis Carroll in ALICE IN WONDERLAND
Today when I receive communion, I am reminded of our dark roots within the earth. I know my energy flows in two directions: the Spirit lifts me up, yet my bond with all creation pulls me down into the depths of life. This moment of tension -- when we are suspended between the heavens and natural world -- is the heart of every liturgy.
