A friend asked Maddy: why are you nailing boards together?
Maddy said: I’m building a house to live in.
When the friend came back later, there was an awkward jumble of sticks nailed together on the ground. They said: well that was dumb.
Some time later, the friend visited Maddy and asked: why are you frowning?
Maddy said: I paid someone to build me a house, but it’s round, upside down, and a mile to the east of where it should be.
The friend shrugged and said: well that was dumb
Some time later, the friend visited Maddy and found her reading on the front porch of a cozy home. They said: did you build this?
Maddy said: no, but I did my part.
The friend laughed and sat down next to Maddy to read with her.
