Question

essay on over traditionalism is detrimental in the path of progress

Answer 1

Traditions are not static. They are constantly evolving with time. New generations bring new thoughts, new ideas, new ways of doing things. However, we rarely recognize this as positive change within the context of culture and traditions. We always talk about, "losing our traditions," instead of what we have gained or ways that traditions have changed for the better. We seem to separate technological advances and new and innovated thinking as something that is separate from culture and traditions…However, is it because of culture and traditions that progress is possible. 

When we forget about the importance of how culture impacts change, we live in fear. 
We limit our progress when we hold on to traditions that don't make sense anymore. When the traditions are oppressive and hurt our people rather then help them. 
When we don't question ourselves and ask…“Why is this tradition still important? How does this tradition help our family, our culture, our way of life.” Why we did things the way we did, 50 or 40 years ago may not make sense today. Is there a better way? Instead of fearing change, we need to embrace it. Instead of blaming the younger generations for not learning the older traditions, we need to embrace them for what they know and what they hold as values and find ways to create new traditions that will include them, instead of outcast them. 

The traditions that have changed and adapted through the generations are the only ones that are going to live on forever. We need not hide behind our traditions. We need not judge others for breaking traditions. We need not let the younger generations carry the burden of "losing our traditions.” Rather, lets us embrace the natural evolution of culture and traditions. Let us hold onto the traditions that still make sense today and let go of the ones that are hindering progression toward a healthier happier human existence.
