In this text, Enrique Salmon explains how kids would come to
gatherings and put on colorful clothes, and how they would dance to pray for
the rain, and how now that kids were attending those ceremonies just to put on
colorful clothes and not dance, and how then Agoyo suggested that those kids
did not know the purpose of the ceremony, and that they did not understand why
people were dancing.
This showed me that as we grow,
sometimes we forget our culture (for example like a family culture) or not just
forget it, but don’t understand the meaning of it and why that culture was
there in the first place. I came to see that the most reason is because most of
the time we don’t care about it as much as our parents or grandparents used to
care about it. Also, sometimes we just think that it’s lame to keep that
culture going. As the world keep changing, us, people, we are also changing,
and sometimes I am afraid that depending on where we are from, or how we were
raised, I am afraid that that little culture everyone have in them will get
lost along the way as we keep growing.
I agree on what u said in this. Culture is such an important aspect In our lives and people don't understand that or unfortunately are never taught it.
