What’s a cultural tradition from your country that you love?
I try not to do this as much but in Zimbabwe when something bad happens so let’s say you tell me ooo I fell, we would normal say sorry. But after moving from Zimbabwe the response I would get is why are you sorry? It’s not your fault. I would be thinking I know it’s not my fault but I’m sorry that happened to you, in the sense that I empathize with you and the unfortunate thing that occurred.
I think I don’t say sorry in empathy as much any more but that is a cultural tradition I love from from my country.
P.s. The fact that we always try to give a little gift when visiting someone is also something that gets an honourable mention
Happy Sunday Everyone and if it’s not a happy Sunday “Sorry” 😅😘
Write about a few of your favorite family traditions.
We are always joking around in my family so whenever we are waiting for big news to take that edge off we never give the good news right away. We always pretend it’s the opposite then it takes a couple of attempts to figure out is it really bad news or is it really good news.
It’s good because when it’s actually bad news you have a little hope that noo they will tell me the truth eventually and if it turns out to actually be bad you have almost numbed the shock a little bit.
O another little tradition that we have recently stopped because somehow we are all “adult adults” is because we travel a lot we “take” each others things right before the trip and you don’t realize till you get to where you are going that 😮 “our” favourite is perfume is gone. Others may call that “theft” we call that affection to be returned on another trip
