An Ode to Keys

Have you every took the time to think of how many types of keys there are?

There are house keys, car keys, mail keys, master keys.

Old keys, new keys, big keys, small keys.

There are monkeys and donkeys.  Key cards and key chains.

There are high keys, low keys, answer keys, piano keys

But the keys that play the most important role in our lives our the keys to success. We  have figurative keys in the palm of our hands. Keys that unlock opportunities to accomplish our dreams and try new things.

When I started high school, I was shy and quiet. I knew that if I tried, I could unlock my potential and step out of my comfort zone. I grabbed those keys. I used them to help me make new friends and try debate.

Keys come in all shapes and sizes. Each key is made for a unique purpose.  We just have to find the right one.

"I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody." -Bill Cosby

  2. I never have thought about how many kinds of keys there are. And monkeys and donkeys never even occurred to me. I stole the two sentences right before Bill Cosby. And I really did like your post.

  3. Loved the beginning how you kept changing "keys", so to speak, and listed different kinds of keys. I especially liked how you wrapped it up with a quote at the end. Great Stuff
