Traditions are part of the fabirc of our lives, the thread that weaves throughout from generation to generation.  They can be anything that carries with it the remembrance of generations past –  stories, recipes, objects, quilts, religious symbals  – and continues to be carried on for future generations to come.  It is how we honor past generations by keeping their struggles and successes alive in our minds and hearts.   Recreating  a favorite recipe that  a parent, grandparent,  or great grandparent  used to make keeps a tradtion followed.   If you don’t have a family tradition start one with todays generation.  Decide together what would make a good family tradition – which recipe is everyones favorite?  What handmade piece of furniture has an amazing story attached?  Is there  someone who has overcome a great challenge?  – anything that makes you feel proud is a good tradition to pass on to  future generations.  Traditions are part of  the fabric of our  life  –   keep them weaving  for future generations to come.  For more info www.sheilaaronbooks.com.
