What struck me while I was reading this beautiful essay "Open Sesame" was the song "Opening Doors" from the musical Merrily We Roll Along...I had to very good fortune to have just seen the Broadway production with Jonathan Groff, Daniel Radcliffe, and Lindsay Mendez and since my writing is not as elegant as yours - I will let Mr. Sondheim speak as I think this ties in perfectly:
I love this, Kelly! I actually chose this song, "Opening Doors", as my theme song for the year. That's amazing you got to see the show on Broadway. It's on my list. Thank you for your kind comment.

We're opening doors
Singing, "Here we are!"
We're filling up days on a dime
That faraway shore's looking not too far
We're following every star-
There's not enough time!
