Strength is not hardness
A stone is not strong
Hardness is weakness
It hurts others
Weakness is brokenness
And is seen without value
Strength lays in the ability to be a monolith
Lay the stone atop another stone
Unmoving, changing with the passage of time
Boundary is value
Worn but ever-constant
Character is sacrifice
Structures are built
You cannot throw a wall
You must evolve
Walls are meant to be torn down
You must not hide
There is strength in breaking what you've built
History is not waiting for you
Your bare hands must build anew
Time will happen upon your flesh
Death will defeat time
This stone you stand before
Is a taste of what is to come
