Based on my family’s culture, I
would choose items that can clearly explain what we believe in and items that
exhibit our cultural values. My family
is very religious. As a result, I would
choose to take the Bible to show my religious beliefs and to educate others
about Christianity. The second item I
would take is a photo album of my family.
I can use this album to show others my family and my heritage. The third item would be a quilt that has been
passed down through the generations.
Quilting is a hobby that has become part of my heritage and culture.
Many of the older women quilt; therefore, I would continue to teach this to
future generations.
The Bible is the most important item because it is the core value in my family. Religion is about spiritual and cultural connections. Plus, the Bible contains scriptural knowledge that can be used to teach future generations.

Tammy,
ReplyDeleteI think it is great that you are able to pass down the art of quilting to future generations. Hobbies and talents are definitely a part of our culture. As I was reading your post, I considered hobbies and talents that are important to my family. I hope we can pass these down to our future generations as you have passed quilting down in your family.
Hi Tammy,
ReplyDeleteI understand your choice of the Bible as an important part of family core. It contains all that is needed to keep us in times of distress and what is necessary to maintain our understanding of why we were created and the purpose.
