People are just locks and keys. Some people are closed up tight and they're just waiting for the right key to open them. Some locks have just one key, and there's only one copy. Some locks can be opened by just about anything; even a paperclip or a fingernail will do the trick. Some locks can't even be locked, and sometimes this causes trouble.
There are big ornate keys with jewels and gold. And there are specialized keys with six sides that open very fancy hard-to-open locks. There are plain keys about which nobody thinks twice, but that everybody has on their chain. And there are blanks that have lots of potential, but require some changing to really work. And there are master keys that seem to magically open up all of the locks on the block.
I got a new pen today, but otherwise it's been uneventful. In honor of my new pen, the digital ink stops here and I'm off to write a letter.
