In US and UK movies and shows I see an incredible amount of mentions to marriage and people who apparently grow up thinking about marriage. This is regardless of the topic and the general tone of the show, background of the characters, and still holds in independent movies, etc. It appears to be ubiquitous.
When I was to London and Ireland I was surprised to see how many marriage-related professions there were in advertisements in the cities I visited. It's like an industry.
I work remotely and I have colleagues from around the world, and marriage appears again to be more present in the narrative of people from the US, Canada, UK, Australia, Ireland, and other English-speaking countries.
What are your thoughts? Have you noticed a difference with other cultures?

Que arias si alguien llega y te propone una relación solo para que lo dejen en paz y fingir que tiene prometida y en parte tienes el mismo problema pero menos inteso, haceptarias?

Pregunta

What would you do if someone comes and proposes a relationship just to be left alone and pretends to be engaged, and you partly have the same problem but less intense, would you accept?

Question

Tradition is not just about clothing, it's about identity.

The only relaxation is going to the temple 

I had a small dream that 
Going to temple with my gurl 
Holding her hand 
Gives the another vibe 💫

Nasi Tumpeng is a typical Indonesian dish that contains deep meaning in local culture and traditions. Shaped like a mountain, Nasi Tumpeng symbolizes prosperity, success and harmony, with the yellow color of turmeric symbolizing wealth. Apart from being delicious, the manufacturing process can also foster the values of togetherness and harmony. With its rich taste and symbolic meaning, Nasi Tumpeng is not only a dish, but also a reflection of Indonesia’s rich culture that is worth preserving.

Nasi Tumpeng

So, we Lakota believe that when we are born we are assigned a Wanagi..
 A Wanagi is like a spirit from a star.
 When we complete our life cycles here on earth, we travel back to the star of our inception. 
This epic voyage is known as making the journey.
 When we 
return home — to the Star Nation.

So, 
the Ojibwe and Cree Nations believe the northern lights are the spirits of dearly departed loved ones — dancing their way home to the stars.

(this is only a small part)

Is given to children by adults, married people to singles, older generation to younger ones, employer to employees & so forth. It symbolizes good wishes and luck for the new year ahead. It's filled with an amount of money and given as a gift. 
Do you still get hóngbāo in this Lunar New Year? 🤭😜

Native American Origins


Lacrosse traces its origins to North American Indian tribes. 
The full-contact, fast-moving sport of lacrosse was ideal for training young Native Americans in the art of battle, 
but lacrosse competitions also took the place of battle.

This is my Sgian-Dubh - or 'Black knife'. These are worn as part of traditional Scottish highland dress.

Swords and the like were always discarded at the door when engaging in celebrations or being welcomed into a home as a guest. But the world was a.dangetous place and a Scot should always be armed.

The compromise was the black knife. Worn on the side of a man's dominant hand, the blade is tucked into the top of your sock with the handle out and visible. The blade shouldn't be concealed, despite the name, but is displayed to show you're still able to fight should other guests decide to break with the strict rules and traditions of highland hospitality.

This one is purely ceremonial for an international wedding, but I also have a true one.

This one is engraved with the motto of my family - 'Vér Viet Leiðrinn'. Old Norse for 'We know the way'.

Sgian-Dubh

from that elevated viewpoint you are detatched from the Earth and material things.
The eagle is also attributed with remarkable vision. It can see clearly over great distances and identify small creature and objects from a long way off. So the eagle is associated with far-sightedness and the ability to look ahead. From an elevated viewpoint you are able to see more clearly where things on Earth fitted together.

Since the eagle is able to look directly into the Sun without being blinded by its intensity, this ability indicates  the attribution of illumination, which comes to the mind through spiritual vision or the ability to see into the essence or spirit of things

The eagle is a bird that flies higher than any other, so the Indian consider it to be 'closer to the sky'.
 To the Indian, the sky was and is synonymous with spiritual things like :
principles. 
When close to the sky

I send smoke up in prayer  that all my brothers and sisters who sit in  sacred circle with me  great peace.
 I send smoke up in prayer  for  light to shine.

Blessings of love to you.
