Nature abhors balance, sameness, and the return to the way it was. If you think nature wants things to stay the same, watch the heavens where man cannot be blamed. The universe finds balance quite boring and will not tolerate it for very long.
It’s the same fight that has gone on in the universe, beginning with the Big Bang. Entropy wins! It is the second law of Thermodynamics. Order will always give way to disorder. Just experience your Starbucks coffee getting cold before you finish it. That is the way of universal nature.
How grandiose is man to think that he/she can subjugate the forces of nature to be under his/her total control, like the infant that thinks they were the cause of their parent’s illness and the pain of everyday life. Stasis is a myth created by man out of fear of the unknown. Nature could care less about global warming. The planet will survive long after our species has irradicated itself.
Man does have the gift of entropy to harness the energy of disorder to further his experience – beyond that lies only the insanity of doing the same things over and over and expecting the results to change.
The best we can do is tap into disorder to create momentary order. That is our destiny of existence, in my humble opinion. Why use our precious time to fight the inevitable? Rather, to live life as the observer of the universe and be an agent of change.
