What's your tradition? Please include details such as when and how it started, why it's important to you, and any other information that illustrates its place in your life.

If you have an original photo to illustrate your tradition, the people in your story, or just of yourself, please upload it here. (No larger than 1MB, please!)

May we publish your insights (and any uploaded files) and attribute them to you? (Your comments may be edited for length or clarity.)
