This quote struck a chord with me.
For me, it has multiple meanings. Always look up, is one, in simple words. Another is the idea that if you’re in the gutter and you’re just looking down or around you, you miss the majesty of the stars. Don’t focus on the negative things that may be happening around you.
Apparently you also can’t go through life with your eyes closed and no goal in sight, you’ll end up going in circles and back where you started after a pointless journey. Read this article as to why people can’t walk straight and you will be enlightened (and possibly amused).
