Make priorities have been reordered. From this new vantage point, we may see the Exodus story entirely differently than in years past. The collective experience of our four cups of wine, the four questions and the lessons of the four children may fuse as a dynamic compass, reconfiguring our psychospiritual north, south, east and west.
When we gather this year around the Seder table, we will be able to imagine the sea of troubles parting before us, as it did for our ancestors. We will envision our march toward freedom, into the arms of our loved ones.
And together, we will dream of the sun shining in a timeless spring, for all our days.
Freedom is a precious process that demands navigation through obstacles. It requires unlimited endurance and pushes us to define what we want for ourselves and for others. It highlights what is most meaningful and teaches us to rise after a fall. It orchestrates opportunities for welcoming the stranger, loving our neighbors, honoring our elders, caring for the Earth and all of Creation.
It is something we choose over and over again. JN
