We are still the masters of our fate. Rational thinking, even assisted by any conceivable electronic computers, cannot predict the future. All it can do is to map out the probability space as it appears at the present and which will be different tomorrow when one of the infinity of possible states will have materialized. Technological and social inventions are broadening this probability space all the time; it is now incomparably larger than it was before the industrial revolution—for good or for evil.
The future cannot be predicted, but futures can be invented. It was man’s ability to invent which has made human society what it is. The mental processes of inventions are still mysterious. They are rational but not logical, that is to say, not deductive.
Dennis Gabor, 1963

Numbers
There is no biggest number.
-------------------
...
Oysa bir bardak su yetiyordu saçlarını ıslatmaya
Bir dilim ekmeğin bir iki zeytinin başınaydı doymamız
Seni bir kere öpsem ikinin hatırı kalıyordu
İki kere öpeyim desem üçün boynu bükük
Yüzünün bitip vücudunun başladığı yerde
Memelerin vardı memelerin kahramandı sonra
Sonrası iyilik güzellik.

Smile
The worst things got, in fact, the broader her smile became. I loved her smile. It smoothed me, encouraged me. "It'll be alright", her smile told me. "Just hang in there, and everything will turn out okay"

Remedios
Remedios, little girl, girl, beautiful, beautiful
Sitting on the seashore
And handfuls of pearls
The sun on your face and smile
white orchid, soul and dove
and joy, comfort you sing,
hope you sing, you sing remedies,
hopes that one day I can tell you:
"I love small, petite, pretty,
beautiful, Piccola Piccola Piccola,... "
Your story, once told us,
god, your brother with his guitar,
you were asleep down the moon,
you were happy, little Remedios,
hopes that one day I can tell you:
"I love you, baby, baby, beautiful,
beautiful, Piccola Piccola Piccola,..."
The sun on your face and smile,
white orchid, soul and dove
and joy, comfort you sing,
hope you sing, you sing remedies
hopes that one day I can tell you:
"I love you, baby, baby, beautiful,
beautiful, Piccola Piccola Piccola,..."

Full Moon and Half Moon :)
Re-qouting from Ursula K. Legun
“If you can see a thing whole," he said, "it seems that it's always beautiful. Planets, lives. . . . But close up, a world's all dirt and rocks. And day to day, life's a hard job, you get tired, you loose the pattern. You need distance, interval. The way to see how beautiful earth is, is to see it from the moon. The way to see how beautiful life is, is from the vantage point of death."
Thanks to Sadia for the telescope.
