When we look up, we see the things that scare us. The things that make us feel small, insignificant, and alone. We see the unknown.

In the night, we see the darkness. In the day we see an impenetrable blue. Either way, we are dwarfed by what we cannot overcome.

Some people find inspiration in this.

I suspect the invention of vodka was inspired by this, and I celebrate the night by drinking vodka. And not looking up.
