我们是拆迁队还是修缮者？
Are we a teardown or a fixer-upper?
Austin Kleon 在上周通讯中写道，一位外地开发商拆掉了他街尾的房子并砍光了地块上所有树，看着挖掘机推倒墙壁，他想到“凡能建成的，皆可被拆毁”，适用于房子、关系与文明。最让他触动的是废墟散发的腐朽气味，随后雨水百合与血红色花朵从地里长出。
Last week’s newsletter began:
An out-of-town developer tore a house down at the end of my street and cut down every single tree on the lot. As I watched the big T-Rex excavator claw down the walls, a thought ran through my head: If it can be built, it can be torn down. True of houses, relationships, and civilizations. What got me the most was the smell of the big pile of demolished house. A smell of rot and death. And then the oxblood and rain lilies came up.
