Dear esteemed traditional counsel,
I am writing this letter to express my deep concern about certain traditional practices that should not die away. Though there has been tremendous economic progress in modern times, there are several aspects of traditional practices that remain indispensable due to their importance in preserving culture, values, and heritage. For instance, certain festivals and traditional games, such as archery and horse riding, which bring communities together, should be kept alive. Elders should be respected and their advice heeded for its wisdom and experience.
Furthermore, traditional ceremonies, such as weddings and funerals, are integral parts of every culture and should not be sidelined or replaced. Traditional food is an invaluable legacy that should be preserved and in which resources, time, and talents should be invested. Despite numerous challenges of globalization and technological advancement, traditions remain as great sources of inspiration and guidance to keep people connected to their roots.
Moreover, certain norms and taboos which revolve around practices like courting or dealing with social and political issues, can also help create a well-connected and conscious society. Music and art have connection with the traditional beliefs and these should be kept alive and passed on to the future generations.
In conclusion, I want to stress that our traditional practices are an invaluable asset and should never be allowed to fall in oblivion. I firmly believe that preserving these practices is analogous to preserving our culture.
Sincerely,
…
