Half a Century

Images of a celebration of a Journey that has reached 50 years of age.

Salvio was here and we spent quality and nice time together with my family. We went to the Böblingen Mineraltherme, had dinner in Nagold. Guni, Diego and Wanda surrounded me with their love and their presents.

I did not feel the need of a big celebration, on the contrary I just wanted to live these days in an easy way.

Every time I look back in time I have the perception of the so many things happened. Like there have been many Gianni in one, in many places, with many emotions. At 50, now, I have a sense of joy, of satisfaction for all that these years have included.

I have lived this person, this soul, Gianni, through half of a Century.

“Around Earth, there grew up colony worlds circling neighboring stars and these colony worlds were far richer in robots than was Earth itself. There was more use for robots on raw, new worlds. Earth, in fact, retreated, wished no more robots, and rebelled against them.” “What happened?” asked Pelorat. “The Outer Worlds were the stronger. With the help of their robots, the children defeated and controlled Earth—the Mother. Pardon me, but I can’t help slipping into quotation. But there were those from Earth who fled their world—with better ships and stronger modes of hyperspatial travel. They fled to far distant stars and worlds, far beyond the closer worlds earlier colonized. New colonies were founded—without robots—in which human beings could live freely. Those were the Times of Flight, so-called, and the day upon which the first Earthmen reached the Sayshell Sector—this very planet, in fact—is the Day of Flight, celebrated annually for many thousands of years.”” (from “Foundation’s Edge (English Edition)” by Isaac Asimov)
