A new blog to contain answers to prompts |
Since my old blog "Everyday Canvas "  became overfilled, here's a new one. This new blog item will continue answering prompts, the same as the old one. Cool water cascading to low ground
To spread good will and hope all around.  |
| Prompt: A New Holiday Tradition Did you ever think of starting a new holiday tradition? Which kinds of new traditions would make you feel happy and excited? ========= A new tradition! I haven't even mastered the old ones...In addition, something to become a tradition it has to be around for sometime, hasn't it! Well, maybe I can bounce some ideas off this page, but I'm afraid they won't be all that new and some or most of them could be the revised versions of the old ones. So let me count the ways:  An annual time capsule? How about it? It could be something a large family can enjoy putting together, such as notes, photos, or small items that represent the past year, to open it in five or ten years later. Adding gratefulness notes to the Christmas tree by each person in the family. A story jar could be something fun. In a jar, each member of the family--and friends, too--can write about a memory or a story from the past year and. during family gatherings and parties, a few of those memories could be read. Traditions are meant to be meaningful and enjoyable if they can take hold. For that, time is of the essence and I'm not talking about hours, days, months, but years and decades and even centuries. Talking about tradition, there's a town around where I live by the name of Tradition, which was built on the southern Florida swamps. Let's hope that this Tradition stays forever because it does house the nicest people and a very good hospital. What I mean by this is, it doesn't matter how good a "tradition" is, people shouldn't build it on swampy ground with the danger of it being swallowed up and forgotten.  There is also that Canadian movie called Tradition, in which something judicial is being made fun of. I meant to see this movie for some time, but didn't get around to it, yet. Maybe this could be another tradition, to watch a movie we haven't watched yet, the day after Christmas or on whichever holiday we may be celebrating. Warped as my thinking is, tradition by its very nature is described as, "the transmission of customs or beliefs from generation to generation, or the fact of being passed on in this way." In theology, it is "a doctrine believed to have divine authority though not in the scriptures." Far be it from me to mess with the established customs or beliefs or any theological doctrine! I think I'll be better off by just sticking to the already established traditions and routes. |
