Continue Personal and Family Traditions
The point here, of course, is not simply to make a list of personal and family traditions, but to continue
them. However making a list of them is one way to ensure one continues them. Traditions are the
activities that provide continuity throughout our lives and that link families and generations together.
Making a list of family and personal traditions can be a useful and fun way of ensuring you keep them alive. Traditions tend to be very personal. In addition to providing continuity, they often are calming in that they give us a sense that "everything is still okay". Sometimes they become, or represent, the "signature" of a person or family.
Make a list of your family and personal traditions - and then keep doing them!
