Culture , Tradition and Life



I'm a firm believer we should never be bound to culture and tradition,we should follow it just so it doesnt die,but why should we not question when we have the right to.We know everything in life changes so why cant our culture and traditions change as well,just because our parents,grandparents or friends say so,that doesnt make it right.I'm not saying everything is wrong,there is no right or wrong thought,it's how we perceive it.

Think it's more important to have our own sets of principles,priorities and stick to it.I know i was born an indian,but i have never had that many indian friends,i'v always believed we should never racialise or judge people based on their race,more on how they speak,thet act/behave,or if they actually think before speaking.I get quite annoyed when people from my own race tell me how i should and should not behave,how to speak,why i have not gotten married,haha the age old thing,it's funny at first but after some time it can get quite annoying.



Sadly i know there is no changing them,and of course it isnt their fault as well,that's how they think but that doesnt mean it's right or i need to follow or accept,i have a mind of my own,i too know right from wrong,my sets of priorities and principles.It may not always be right,but it's also ok to make mistakes in life,that's when we actually learn.When i go to sleep it's my concience that i'm answerable too.

I wish i people would look beyond this race,culture and treat each other like humans.If one day i have kids,even if i adopt,i cant wait to teach them to love/like everyone without judging them by means of religion/race.I can imagine so many people disagreeing with me,but even if 1 out of 1000000 people get this message across or inspires them,it would make a difference,at least we're getting somewhere,anywhere
