You can’t have traditions without the family. It’s the destruction of the family at the hands of the government, and the Marxists that control the cultural narrative, that is destroying our society. Fewer and fewer young people are marrying and having families. They have been taught that careers and self- fulfillment are most important. Marriage and children just get in the way of that. So family traditions aren’t passed on - there’s no one to pass them on to. And they are lost.

A beautiful description of a country steeped in tradition, it’s tribal and that’s how a society flourishes.

Dr. M, you describe a soft place to land in this world of chaos. May these rural enclaves thrive and eventually help reestablish these values that have brought such joy and hope over so many generations.
