28207 - Closer to the sky

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Athena Kehagias

In strategy we say that you must have the big picture
in mind.
And this requires for you to obtain the height in order for it to fit in your glance.
Empire State Building.
The landmark of the height of Humanity is in existence since 1931.
It was the year of Godel’s Incompleteness Theorem.
And for decades on it was the tallest building in the world.
They climbed up at 1250 feet, ie, 381 meters
at the 102nd floor, in order to view the island at 360 degrees.
Manhattan.
And this occurred in two phases, both open and closed.
They were observing a piece of Humanity
which was a mosaic in itself.
With the languages, the people and the buildings.
A mosaic of three dimensions
where each tessera was a building
and some were real skyscrapers.
And it was that, that they were examining with caution, because many rounds of various strategic games were played upon it.
And they had to be aware of the boundaries, the edges, the angles
since it was in this context that the field of the Rights of Humanity would be formed.
Right in the background the other tower was obvious.
Freedom Tower.
It constituted a target as did the Statue of Liberty.
These symbols have a meaning for all nations,
for all the Just and the innocent.
The big picture existed thereon.
And they were aware of the rules.
As from the next confrence they had to learn
regarding the schemes of barbarism
so that they could find the appropriate stratagems.
So this target was locked on as well.
