The bird nesting in a sign has found shelter in a message it cannot read.

A bird nesting in a sign has found a good ledge. The message means nothing to it; only the shape, shelter, and height matter, and the elaborate human intention is simply invisible material. What we consider the point of the object is not present in the encounter at all.

There is a mild humility available in this. Most of what you construct carefully is being used by others for reasons you did not intend, and the meaning you worked on may not be the part that gets taken. Rather than being frustrated by that, it can be worth asking what your work actually offers people, as distinct from what you designed it to say.
