Q - Is it desirable to be conservative?
A - The conservative lives in the formula of the past and in the imagined safety of that formula.
But a formula thrives only in context: in the immediate reality surrounding it.
The formula that worked before ---in the past and gone contexts ---could not be relied upon to be as effective in the present as in the past because the context surrounding it had changed.
The conservative exists in a bubble that seeks predictability, regularity, sameness.
That approach to life would cause so much stress and tension with the elements of the present.
