Just because something doesn't do what you planned it to do doesn't mean it's useless.
-- Thomas A. Edison
I think this is highly useful advice in a much broader sense too. Many people find that the most amazing developments in their lives had nothing to do with anything they had planned or even could have planned. It's very important to be open to where the stream takes you.

Yes...key word: "open"
Edison was *THIS* close to inventing the word "serendipity"!

TC,
That's what keys are *planned* to do: open. ;-)
But what does a key word open?
Hmmm... Nope, it's not an online account. That's for my *password*...
[deep in thought] Not a secret diary's locket, either. Ali Baba's treasure cave?...

EXACTLY, my Brother! :-)
"But what does a key word open?"
a spirit of adventure; a whole new bunch of possibilities and way of looking at things; a chance to say "YES!" to something (or someone) instead of "NO!" all the time! :-D
