What Is Meant for Us

There is a mystery woven into life,

a quiet intelligence

that works beyond our planning,

beyond our calculations,

beyond the maps we draw so carefully.

We spend years reaching,

chasing horizons,

forcing doors,

convincing ourselves

that every blessing must be wrestled from the world.

Yet sometimes,

the most precious things arrive

when our hands are no longer clenched.
