The Role of Tradition

Tradition refers to practices, beliefs, and customs passed down through generations within a community or society. It helps maintain a sense of identity, continuity, and shared values, connecting people to their history and cultural roots. Traditions often shape behaviors and celebrations, providing stability and a sense of belonging. While they can evolve over time, they serve as a framework for understanding who we are and how we relate to others, fostering community cohesion and cultural understanding.
