Of course you could never understand why I would pay forty-five dollars for a pen. Why is it I could never get that until this moment, sitting in a far away place, thinking of days gone by.
Nothing has ever flowed through your hand which was not part of number crunching or writing a proposal. How could you possible understand the connection, the feeling of flow from head to hand through the pen and onto the paper. Why would the feel of the instrument in your hand make any difference?
I am so sorry. It was I who did not understand.

How beautiful your writing is...did you really spend $45 for a pen? I would like to see tha pen.
So true, Salma. Sometimes it takes a long time for the penny to drop. Yes, I did pay that much. It's not really an expensive pen in the over all scheme of things. If I had the money, I would no doubt buy a $1,000.00 waterman or parker! However, I do have some common sense left in this old head.
It's lovely you think my writing is 'beautiful'. That comment warmed my heart and I thank you for that. xx
Lady D, I always tell you how much your writing touches me. It's true.
Muchos gracias. xx
