On being at peace
It's been several years since I've picked up using fountain pens and as time has gone on, I've found the desire to acquire new pens has faded. I have five pens in my rotation from a simple Jinhao to my favourite(s) - two SF Platinum 3776s.
I don't plan to acquire any more, unless I can find a nice second hand SM Platinum 3776, but it's not something I'm actively looking for.
Has anyone else found a sudden calm clarity that they have enough? That they're happy with what they have and any desire for more is fleeting?
This isn't meant to come off as a holier than thou post, just a personal reflection. If collecting pens is your vibe, go for it! I'll never begrudge anyone their hobbies and loves as long as it doesn't negatively impact their lives.
