Shall we descend? Or go round?

[westerebus]

Looking up from our path to the mountain peak.

We see enormity staring back at us.

It's difficult.

Shall we descend?

We haven't take the first step, how can we descend?

Having looked up from our path, we have taken the first step.

The climb began at that moment.

Or go round?

And relinquish the effort its taken to look up?

To go round, keeps to our path avoiding what is difficult.

The stars will shine none the less.

How close you are to them depends on taking the next step.
