Hello, I’m selling my Leonardo Momento Zero fountain pen with a steel nib in Lilac Nuvola. It’s a medium nib, I think. Either a medium or fine; I don’t have any other sizes. I need to check. I can mail it first thing after the move. I’ll sell it for $80. That’s about half price. Rose gold findings.

A story I found about Haiti:
In 1999, a group of Haitians were tired of political disorder and dreamed of a better life in the United States. So they built a small, 23-foot boat by hand using pine trees, scrap wood, and used nails. They called the boat "Believe in God."

From Chris Van Dyke, son of Dick Van Dyke, on FB about Rob Reiner, and a parting shot at the Orange guy.
He rarely posts about politics, or entertainment industry, and he did not have a life in the public eye like Rob and Dick, but his words are worth reading.

We say goodbye to actor, filmmaker and activist Rob Reiner.
A dedicated storyteller with sincerity that imbued his prolific work and the causes he believed in, Reiner’s heartfelt portrayal of the human condition reminds us of the power of film and its abilities to stay with us.

What are abstract ideas like “being happy” and “having fulfillment” compared to real world achievements like “working full time for a company and still needing food stamps”
While work-life balance may give you a sense of happiness and fulfillment, it isn’t always realistic, says Walmart executive vice president and chief people officer Donna Morris.
Walmart exec: ‘I’ve never believed in the term work-life balance’—this is the mantra that made her highly successful instead
Many professionals see work-life balance as a non-negotiable. Walmart CPO Donna Morris says people should practice work-life integration instead. Here's why.
