Independence allows for the complete freedom of the mind and the emotions. If one is reliant on others one may be expected to conform to agendas of which the individual does not agree nor does not feel comfortable with. However independence can
be taken too far and leave one a lonely person. Thus a certain ability of balance, as willing dependence may also be helpful.
A certain dependency on others allows others to have and feel importance. It causes one to have to interrelate, to accept others standards, to become understanding of others ways, and promotes a respect for other's independence. It causes one to keep one's ego in check.
The True Conservative while possessing principles, integrity, and loyalty to the pre-existent state, is not an uncompromising strict dogmatist, but rather tends to be more of a relativist towards oneself and others. The TC is tolerant of others in terms of conditions others are given as pre-existent states. Some of these states are gender, sexual orientation, race,
talent, background, physical and intellectual characteristics, temperament and the conditioning of environment and values. Thus people are legitimately different. The understanding of the reasons why others are the way they are and accepting it is a matter of Compassion. To the extent one does not want to accept the differences of
others, where differences derive from the pursuit of
progressive values, the individual may accept that these people are dangerous to one's well being and or mental and emotional states and refuse to relate and interact, not as a matter of prejudice but as a simple state of preservation. This generally can be summarized, as can one be and act honestly around others. If not, one through independence can refuse association or can tend to attempt to compromise with them, accept their
differences, and attempt to educate them by means proved most effective by experience. This is usually most easily accomplished by accepting people emotionally, possessing or developing a genuine liking on that level and then being as honest as one can to the extent that others can accept it.
The argument will always be made that in a Conservative framework the individual cannot pursue the freedoms to
utilize every capacity. Thus progression is distinguished
from Natural Development. Natural Development is the development of what is inherent to the constitution of the pre-existent state. Thus the tree develops from the inherent precondition of the seed.
