Today I actually realized how close Halloween is. I'm a big Halloween fan; mainly because it means the weather is changing and the holiday season is near. I'm not sure how to feel about that this year. Even though the holidays were a complete rollercoaster last year, they were busy, my mind wad busy.
Through last year we followed the traditions of our families. Through all of our lives our parents have taught us their ways of living. Everything you learn, from brushing your hair to knowing how to love your spouse and children come from what you learned, witnessed, and experienced as a child, from your parents, siblings, aunts, uncles, grandparents, and friends. These are all things everyone should be grateful for, should be thankful for, and in return teach these things, in your own way, to your children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
This year we plan to start our own traditions. We aren't sure exactly what they are yet but they will be ours to follow for many years as a family. I am excited to explore and create new, while of course implementing old traditions and ideals with my own family.
