The Brick ? An Individual Unit That Needs to Connect In Order to Function and Be Valuable
The brick by itself has no function and no value to the world. In order to have value it needs to connect with other bricks. When the brick, a structural unit, connects with other bricks and they organize, a wall is built. The wall as a structural unit, connects with other walls and they organize to form a room, and eventually a building is built. Although the brick is nothing by itself ? a weak brick can bring the whole wall and the whole building down.
