You think rules are just guidelines, or are they the only thing that keeps chaos from turning into order?
Rules are the scaffolding, guidelines are the paint. The structure keeps chaos from becoming something useful.
Sure, the scaffolding looks neat, but when the paint dries you see the cracks where the paint never really stuck—those cracks are where real color starts bleeding into the walls.
Cracks show the true hue, like exceptions in a pattern; they remind us that rules can bend, not break.
True, but when a rule bends, it’s still a rule; when it breaks, that’s when the real chaos starts painting its own masterpiece.
