A Day for Tradition

07/04/2017

Eventually we realize that not knowing what to do is just as real and just as useful as knowing what to do... Not knowing what to do, we start to pay real attention.
David Whyte, Poet

Bonnie Neugebauer and Nancy Rosenow wrote about the power of traditions (such as celebrating the Fourth of July), in their article "Traditions Make Us, Us" in the July/August edition of Exchange magazine:

"When life feels uncertain, traditions can provide a sense of security and connection. They ground us in history and remind us of what stays solid while the sands of change shift around us. Traditions connect past, present, and future so we can all remember the path behind us and imagine the path ahead. In her book The Happiness Project, Gretchen Rubin writes that traditions 'mark the passage of time in a happy way. They provide a sense of anticipation, security, and continuity...They provide connection and predictability, which people—especially children—crave.'"
