I am super into regrounding all of the rituals that have lost their purpose. Do nothing just because it was always done that way, that’s STUPID.
Follow the old ways because you’re nostalgic; they trace a comforting-familiar groove in your mind. Follow the old ways because they connect you mentally, emotionally, with people throughout history and the world. Follow the old ways because that seems to lead to good outcomes by mechanisms you don’t fully understand. Follow the old ways because you’re curious if you will come to find the others have found in them. Follow the old ways because you need to do the things SOMEWAY and this happens to a way you don’t have to organize from scratch. Follow the old ways because they are the BATNA to modern options, and you benefit from preserving your ability to walk away from a social contract.
