A recent road trip to a rural cemetery for a graveside funeral had me passing through many small towns. All through these towns on on the outskirts were buildings, houses, and barns that caught my eye. It wasn’t for the grandeur of them. Not at all actually. What caught my eye was that a great many of them had become so dilapidated that they were beyond repair.

Regardless of where you go — whether small towns or large cities — you will see buildings like this.

Many years ago I went to Scotland on a mission trip and had the opportunity to see several castles. Most of them would have dated back to times before my country of citizenship even existed. Yet Some could nearly be lived in. I’m sure many are. But many were in ruins.

What makes one place seemingly stand the test of time and other structures look like they will fall at any minute?

Interest and energy.
