From  ​The Haggadah of Liberation

Lift wine glasses and recite together:

To where we've each come from

To where we're going and how we're changing

To being where we are and who we are

To what we can share

To what we can't share--yet

To our joys and our struggles, which in full times we know are connected and which in hard times isolate us

To process, and the times we lose sight of the process

To pain, to growth

To painless growth, to painful growth

To our efforts, our faith, our determination

To our fears, tears, laughter, hugs, and kisses

To wisdom, to study--alone and in groups

To our books and tools, to toys

To materials, raw and fine

To work, to meetings, to sleep

To our eyes, which see mountains and faces and flowers and bodies and occasionally sunshine

To our ears, hands, noses, mouths, toes, breasts

To caresses, to touch, to our senses

To our knees

To the times we fall down and pick ourselves up and the times friends help us up

To the shoulders we cry on

To the arms that hold us

To the strength in each of us, alone

To our work

To our play

To our loving

To our growth

To life itself

L'CHAIM!
