I feel blessed to have that support

I hadn't used this Kaweco Palm Green ink in forever and I just happened to have an empty pen. It turned out to be a nice combo and I'm really enjoying using green and brown ink for autumn.
I felt like this was a good writing session. Sometimes it goes well, sometimes not, but it's always worthwhile showing up and I would do well to remember that.
That green is gorgeous!
I don't read your posts regularly, but I enjoy them when I do. The sight of horizontal ink writing in a Leuchtturm notebook is particularly pleasing. Your handwriting is exquisite, too. As a notebook enthusiast, this caught my eye. I'm curious—did you choose this notebook deliberately, or do you share my passion for fine stationery? I'm currently in my Hobonichi phase.
The posts themselves are intriguing as well. Though I can't always find time to read them, today yours was the first in my feed—perhaps because of our recent chat about tea! Thank you again for your kind words about the article.
I also wanted to inquire about your progress with Akhmatova and her poem “Tsarskoye Selo”. Was that video from yesterday? Curiously, it evoked memories of home; I grew up in a house overlooking Kresty—the prison Akhmatova would gaze at from the embankment, where her monument now stands. These days, I find myself in a similar position to Akhmatova with Kresty, but viewing Petersburg from afar.
