Dewey loves the new, as do I:
"The 'magic' of poetry--and pregnant experience has poetic quality--is precisely the revelation of meaning in the old effected by its presentation of the new. It radiates the light that never was on sea or land but that is henceforth an abiding illumination of objects."
(from his essay "Experience, Nature and Art" in Art and Education (1954))
You should love the new, too.
What form does the new take, you ask? Life. Life is the form it takes. With its "abiding illumination of objects."
