“Persons, created whole, are meant to sense and exult in, rather than be estranged from, their remarkable unity. We men and women are conscious of our wholeness in profoundly human moments -- whenever we lose ourselves in the kindred activities of creating something -- teaching a class, doing a job thoroughly, preparing a family meal, painting the truth of one’s vision in water color or in words -- and in loving others in every self-forgetful way, including our healthy passionate sexual celebration of our intimate relationships. These moments of dying and rising are unmistakably and richly human for, at one and the same instant, they are sensual, sexual and spiritual, in short, sacramental.”
