مرحبا القلم بال? what is this in english i have a pen pal in arabia somewhere and he wrote me this?

I will help you sense i read arabic,
they said hello pen pal :)

He wrote ... Hello pen pal?

In paragraph 47, it says “moments like these make a pioneering flight anything but dull” i’d say he’s optimistic and determined? ? and in 48, it describes how i’m assuming people he looks up to walked the same path so maybe he’s honored to be on the journey ? sorry if i’m wrong.
