#WritersCoffeeClub — an analogy that stuck with me:

A locked door and a wall look identical from three feet back. Same wood, same frame, same paint. The only difference is a hole the size of your thumb, and the fact that one of them wants you on the other side.

I spent a week walking up to doors with my name in hand before I learned to check which was which. Most people never get close enough to notice the hole.
