"That's outrageous!" He said. "You're a ******* fool" I muttered. That's pennies on the dream. If you think that the four dollars And 29 cents is for a piece of plastic with some ink and a ballpoint then you're probably just making a grocery list. A pen is not for scribbling to do lists. There is an app for that. A pen is for unlocking dreams and opening windows. It's for recording the nightmares and victories of a life worth living. If you don't have PTSD from one thing or another by 28, then you aren't living right. "You're a madman" he chuckled. Maybe so. But I think the price is worth it.
