Tradition

King Wen of Zhou once proclaimed, "When the family is right, the entire country is settled." A family's inheritance extends beyond material wealth and assets; it encompasses the preservation of culture. As the wheel of history relentlessly advances, the establishment of a family's unique traditions often necessitates the collaborative efforts of its members. To this day, my family continues to uphold a distinctive and cherished tradition - weekend breakfasts.

Initially, our weekend breakfasts were modest yet filled with love. As a young girl, I was unaware that my father's demanding job and frequent business trips left him with little time at home. Every weekend, he would undertake various household chores to alleviate my mother's burden. Back then, he was quite clumsy and would simply buy soybean milk and other ordinary breakfast items. Although not particularly appetizing, these meals always filled me with happiness.

As time passed and our familial bonds strengthened, weekend breakfasts gradually became an ingrained habit in our household. When I was in primary school, my father brought my grandparents to live with us due to their declining health. At that point, he began attempting to prepare more nutritious meals for their well-being. Although his initial attempts were far from perfect, he always took pleasure in his efforts. It wasn't until my junior year when my younger brother was born that my father decided to hone his skills in preparing delectable breakfasts. By then, weekend breakfasts had become an established routine in our family - truly embodying the old saying "Family and everything prosper."

To this day, weekend breakfasts remain a long-standing and unique tradition within our family. Last year, as I delved into the rigors of high school studies, I found myself waking up early and staying up late to cope with academic demands. Weekend breakfasts became our exclusive time for family reunions; they provided me with unwavering motivation to persevere through challenging times. Although I have since left home to pursue my education, the tradition of weekend breakfasts has not been forgotten. We continue to derive satisfaction from these hearty meals, and during holidays, I eagerly participate in their preparation. These gatherings have evolved into a special ritual that brings our family immense joy.

Taiwanese writer Lin Qingxuan once stated that standing in tradition leads to profound thoughts. Tradition does not emerge overnight; it requires steadfast commitment and perseverance. In the future, we will continue to uphold this cherished custom within our family. (409 words)
