Old & New

I read this excerpt from a book It made me think a thought. It seems like movements, systems, and organizations are only good when they are new - or at least moving towards something new. So many are old and settled. Something about being "settled" seems to result in decay. The decay strikes at the core of the thing, undermining it's very purpose. It all starts to fall apart. What I want to know, is what happens after that - after it all falls apart.
