Some Roads We Pave May Crack…

Our brains immediately begin constructing a map of reality that defines our thinking, with each new experience layered on top of our growing mass of memories. Our understanding grows like a city, spreading outward, becoming more dense and complex. Buildings may be updated or replaced, but once the roads are laid, altering the map in a major way gets increasingly difficult.

Though some roads may crack, new things can always grow on top of them.
