I’m sorry. This touched me, as when I was little I liked keys. My family members would give me keys to put on a little keyring I had. I’d spend long periods of time looking at them.

Keys make me think of the life of the person who held them…what did they unlock? What were they like?
We spend so much time with our keys…though they’re practical they hold a romance of mystery about them. Possibilities, doors and secrets yet to opened…
