Ritual Development

My understanding of the word ritual is that it’s a set of action that has value to what you do. It could be from your religion or what you believe is true. Something you follow and you continue to do all your life. For instance, every year my family celebrates Christmas in Michigan, and everyone from each state makes sure they are there at this time, because this is our family ritual.
The ritual that I observe in our society would be of the holidays, religious belief, and of the election of president. I was raised to always vote for the best candidate for what is right and always put God first, so that is my ritual in for the society that I am in.
The rituals my family and I observe most of all is the holidays because they are special to my children and I. It’s something we come together and do every year and also spending time at church is another ritual of ours because that is how we were raised.
Rituals that I can identify with today is of people getting together watching the games or going to church, or making Sunday dinner. This been around for years and people continue to do the same thing exactly like they was raised.
The ritual that I have already develop for my family is spending holidays together and make sure that my children put God first. This is how I was raised and I would like for my children to continue that because when ever I would past away, at least I know that my children are still close with each other because they would see each other every holiday, so when they have children they will keep this going for their children because they would know that is what I did for them.
