Why Old is gold ? Why 'what was' has to be better than 'what is' ? Why we resist change ? Why we pull down the new so that old can stay up ?

I understand that we might have built a level of comfort with how things were and when they change we feel inconvenienced. But where is the need to steadfastly cling to the old, to not let it go.

Is there some hidden joy in being disappointed with the way things have turned out ? or

Is that an expression of loyalty to old guard? or

Is there a sense of guilt - how can i share the bed with new when till yesterday I pleasured myself with the company of old ?

Why do people just don't want things to change ?

Why past and present need to be compared.....why we need to judge the two and let the world know which one is better. Why can't both be good. Just Good. None need to be better than another.

It's good to just ask questions some days. When we don't check if we know the answer before posing the question then we don't hide the uneasy questions.
