Our 10th anniversary
On September 10th, Cygnus will be 10 years old! Something to celebrate indeed! 10 years of struggling, surviving, learning, growing, loving, sharing and quite a number of you have been with us for the whole journey! When we look back, one thing is clear: though our hands be ever so empty, when we ask for them to be filled for the sake of Love, they will be! Maybe what we mean by this is not quite clear, but perhaps this poem might speak to you.....
No words, dear friends,
could ever be enough,
but we could not stay our hand,
which moved to give.
Think, then, not of words,
but only Love,
and of the One Who Is,
in Whom we live.
A heart filled with that Love
will overflow,
and see: no hand can stop
what then must grow
an ever-flowing stream
of cleansing Light,
that carves its channel deeply
through the night,
building in us
Its living instrument,
a tool through which that Love
can then be sent;
a vessel from which
healing Blood is shed,
and will not cease to flow
till all are fed.
The human being is made of clay, yet out of it, wondrous lilies can grow. So, for our 10th anniversary, all we can say is our most enormous THANK YOU to that Power which despite our many mistakes, shortcomings and illusions allows each of us to go on aspiring to become what we so much wish to become.
And what is that? Well, channels, albeit tiny ones, through which Love, the core essence of every human being, can flow home once again to the Ocean. Tiny rivulets we may be and by we, we mean all those who aspire to Love, wherever and whoever they may be but what do a lot of tiny rivulets make when you put them together? A great, rushing river!
