"and the fate was so..."
on the overland trip to india almost 15 years ago, i saw this written on the side of a beat-up turkish long distance bus, at ankara bus station... like it was saying that no matter how suicidally-inclined our drivers are and how maniacally they drive, don't worry... what's gonna happen is gonna happen, so don't worry, be happy! happily, even though i saw one crashed bus by the side of the road the whole trip from anakara to erevan, i made it there in one piece.
the bus-drivers in iran were worse! and in india.... well, i have no words. by the time i'd left india some 6 months later, my whole life philosophy had changed from self-deterministic nihilistic loner to committed fatalist!
