When the Words Find You
…and you are ready to hear It
To see a World in a Grain of Sand
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour.”-
Sometimes, certain lines or thoughts stir something deep inside you — not because they’re new, but because you’re finally ready to feel their meaning. How a song you’ve heard a hundred times suddenly speaks to you when you’re going through something profound.
That’s what happened when I read these lines today. I’d come across them before — maybe in a book or quoted in passing — but this time, they stopped me.
And I let them. I felt quieter inside.
A gentle awakening, a revelation that the vast, the eternal, the divine has always been right here, in the smallest moments, the unnoticed details.
I know the world hasn’t changed, but I’m beginning to see it with gentler, more open eyes.
