Great video, mate. Thank you! 🖖 In terms of promoting peace in the world, you mentioned the key yourself. Specifically, "we like to justify our actions as human beings", Thus to promote peace, I have found that many situations are deescalated by actively listening to others because we tend to view ourselves as the victim of our own story. In my experience, it has been a lot more difficult to actively listen in practice than many people expect (myself included).
I have a Lamy Al-Star. It was my second pen and I liked my first pen better, a Cross Bailey. I recently bought a Lamy Safari because I liked the color so much, Violet Blackberry. It was really feather light and I like the weight of the Al-Star better. I’ve since bought three Pilots, an 845, a 743 and an 823, all write rings around the Lamy pens. Of course they cost more.
Wow! I'm glad you survived. I think they made this ink just for you. I'm actually considering picking up a bottle of Lamy Cliff soon. Of the two special edition inks, I think that's my top pick.

Thank you for your thoughts! Yes, active listening is super important, but like you said, it's super hard. I definitely need to work on it more.
That was a fantastic intro lol
hahaha glad you enjoyed it! I had fun making it.
this quote is so relevant right now , only the time will tell how this is gonna unfold

Yeah, those Pilot pens are nice! But they do cost a lot. But you get what you pay for I guess!
I ordered the Cliff ink because I fell off a literal actual cliff in September. It's so weird that Lamy named their color/pen CLIFF.

@@DowntheBreatherHole I like it a lot!

The outro to this video reminded me of all the times I try to convince myself I don't need another fountain pen or ink 😅
haha glad it was relatable.
I don’t care for Lamy pens (have tried a Safari and have a Studio with a medium nib), but have never had a problem with a Kaweco! Interesting! 🤷♀️
Yeah, that is interesting! My experience is the exact reverse. haha
