Talking about traditions we can divide traditions into 2…
Firstly, my traditions are Danish/ Italian, when I grew up in the eighties we celebrated Christmas, Fastelavn, Easter and a Saint s night in November as Danish traditions. The Italian traditions that we celebrated were The Holy 3 kings the 6 of January and the Deads night late in november.
I only brought Fastelavn Christmas with me, only because I like the lights and decorations during the dark times in December. And even if Halloween has become a commercial activity in Denmark, I am not into it.
Secondly, traditions about how we live and talk and treat each other is also to be mentioned.
I don’t bully my sun, I don’t gaslight him, I don’t bring him down, I listen to him, I take him seriously, respect his things and toys and we have a great collaboration. That’s is not something I am grown up with and the reason why I left the the bad communicative strategies is because I now know the consequences of them.
The cup at the picture is a reminder and a signal about the person holding the cup is on a healing journey, so people should mind their thoughts and behaviour.
Thank you for reading.
