Back in 2001 the Taliban destroyed the Buddhas of Bamiyan statutes. The only people who didn't get to upset were the Buddhists. That is because if the Taliban did destroy them, maybe a flood would, or an earth quake, or eventually just erosion. It doesn't mean just accept reckless destruction but also is a lesson as accept that everything passes with enough time.

Dont strangle life and hold everything in place but let it flow like sand or water. Some sticks, most doesn't.
