Light me up London, ON November 2023 This photo originally shared on Instagram |
Of all the technologies we interact with on a daily basis, it’s the humble keyboard that probably gets the most touch time.
(My iPhone apparently begs to differ, and I appreciate why some might think smartphone > keyboard. But when you’re a writer, there’s something about a full-sized keyboard that just connects with your soul in ways no smartphone ever will. Besides, no one ever willingly prefers to hammer out articles, scripts, and papers with their thumbs on a touchscreen. That’s just cruel.)
I had almost forgotten that mine is backlit, so after I shut everything down for the day and turned the big lights off, I was pleasantly surprised by the friendly glow floating up through the darkness. The moment called for a photo.
I’m sharing it because I think this was the universe’s way of reminding me that small things aren’t really that small.
So we take the time to appreciate them before we must rejoin the rest of the world.
