Fewer Keys

Have you noticed, dear reader, especially if you are of a “certain age,” that you / we are carrying fewer keys than before?
When you were a youngster, you might have been given a key to your house and to your mailbox. It was a minor rite of passage. Later on, as you bore more responsibility, you needed a key ring, for your vehicle’s ignition and entry keys, perhaps a key to a garage, and then keys to your place of work, file cabinets, etc. Perhaps you even had a key chain. Your keys jingled, and your toddler-age friends were often fascinated by the sounds from your key ring,
But after you retired, you suddenly noticed that your key ring suddenly became a lot lighter. You no longer needed workplace keys, and your vehicle uses one of those pocket mini-consoles that operate the locks, lights, horn and -- even the engine!

Right now, I'm down to two keys: my house and my vehicle.
And they’re probably going to have to take those away from me, some time in the future!
