a building stands in a forest. it did not grow; it was built. that is the nature of a building.

it is not built from concrete and steel, but from ideas and theories. the civilisation that built it has been lost. only their building remains.

the building is old and crumbling. some people want to repair the building. they study its construction, but the ideas it was built from have begun to decompose. those ideas mingle with the ideas of the forest and they change.

the people who want to repair the building think they are successful. but instead of a new building, they create a beautiful flower. the flower blooms and brings joy to the denizens of the forest.

in time, only the flower remains, and the building is forgotten.
