Wouldn't it be standing in front of it all, watching it burn, looking optimistic?

This stickman has land and seeds and apparently access to water.

Fire is cleansing, yes, and does have some symbolism of rebirth (phoenix comes to mind).

But in terms of symbolism for trying something new and improved, a young plant that will grow makes way more sense than watching something burning. That kind of imagery invokes a sense of acceptance to me.
