Blog: My Family Culture


The three items that I would take would be my jewelry but the one piece is a locket that my mom gave me before she died, my photo book of pictures of my family, and my cell phone. These three items means a lot to me. The locket means a lot to me cause it is a piece of what my mom left to me before she died.  The pictures are good memories of the family traveling to different states, and going on cruise, amusement parks, and family reunions.   My cell phone is texts of my family and friends that said special things to me with inspiration and encouraging words. For example of saying the words “I love you”. I would be upset if they told me that I could take only one item. The one item that I would take would be the locket because that locket means more to me because it was pass through y grandmother, to my mother, and to me. Eventually I will pass it to my daughter. The insights I have gained from my family and my family culture regardless of losing a parent keep up the traditions alive as far as cooking, celebrating holidays, and being there for each other. I also learn to enjoy life and live it to the fullest.

    Thank you for sharing! Did you find this assignment challenging? How would you have felt if you were not allowed to keep the locket that has been passed down through generations to you?
