That's such a lot of philosophy about life from a single fountain pen.
I remember when I was a kid, probably when I was 12 or 13, we were told to write with fountain pens in English classes at school. It was messy, we were kids, and it was a crappy pen, and I remember getting ink on my hand all the time. That was my only experience with fountain pen.
Although it seems a little cumbersome to use with pot of ink and all that, it's so elegant and stylish when I see people writing with a fountain pen, which will always be on screen for me.
Ps, Glad to read this post from you
