In a world of chaos, predictability is important.
Our ancestors had traditions that were part of the GLUE that held their families together.
There were special prayers, meals, services to name just a few.
Everyone knew what to expect and what was needed to keep the traditions alive.
What value do you put on traditions?
It is an effort and takes time and usually quite a bit of preparation.
Maybe you don’t have any traditions in your family. We did not.
START SOME!
Think of something simple that everyone, young and old, can participate in.
We started with Jesus’s birthday cake when our children were little.
Who doesn’t love birthdays and cake?
We would sing Happy Birthday to Jesus and the kids would blow out the candles. It has lasted 32 years!
Look into your ethnic or faith traditions. You will surely find many examples.
Start small and simple and the enjoyment in your family will follow.
