Bruce Sallan Radio Show – Rituals and Traditions
First air date: Thursday, July 21, 2011
Featured guests:
Wayne Levine (BetterMen.org) for “The Men’s Room”
Barbara Greenberg (TalkingTeenage.com)
Jim Scheinberg (North Pier Fiduciary Management) for “Family Financial Matters.”
We discuss holiday rituals and traditions. The column referenced is, “Rituals, Holidays, and Tradition.”
Holidays are both wonderful and, for many, difficult. Mother’s Day or Father’s Day, when they have lost a mother or father, isn’t a Hallmark-Cards good feeling. The Christmas Season, when people are apart from loved ones can also be challenging. In contrast, holidays can be joyous and create family traditions that transcend generations. This past July 4th struck me in this way as I felt both good and melancholy since my boys were apart from us.
