States which pre-exist change, and the same states changed are comparative. The value and consequence of pre-existent states are assessed against the value and consequence of the tandem states changed. Since the activity and behavior of change, is inherent to every existing condition of the Given Existence, the interpretation and perspective of change is described here as
Complimentary and
Antithetical Opposition.
Complimentary Opposition describes change, which is inherent to the natural world of the Given Existence, as
Conservative, which means transformation and destruction for the purpose of preservation. Complimentary Opposition means change which is complimentary, or promotes the existence of the pre-existent state changed, in a same or similar form and identity. A well known example is that only a forest fire produces the heat necessary to open the seedling of the Redwood Tree, and thus the fire promotes the growth of new forest. Trees such as the Oak, reproduce themselves in near identical form for at least, what is already recorded as millions of years. If the reproduction of entities is unregulated within it own species, such as inter species predation, outside forces are needed to regulate the population, such as fire, flood, wind or disease, which is a benefit to what remains, as a less crowded existence.
Complimentary Opposition is change as degradation, such as disease, injury or aging, and replacement of both individual parts and the whole, by regeneration and duplication. Complimentary Opposition is the preservation
of a Stable State, in which every individual state and entity is changed and replaced producing an average number and condition, relative to the larger environment. The population of any species can only grow to the degree that the environment can sustain it.
