Can It Be Boxed?

April 9th, 2008 by kdanielle

To me culture is a way of living, almost like a blueprint to life. A culture is something that people follow because they believe in it. To box up culture you must look at what is important to you, and think of what you would save to resemble your culture. For me, I don’t really follow a culture but if I had to pick a part of my culture to save I would have to say it would be food.

I would choose this because I come from a Hispanic family and food means something to them. Culture not only is a way of life, and what you would save from it. It is also has a part in what nationality you are; I am Hispanic, Italian, Irish, and a little bit German. Knowing this, I can know a little about my culture.

So knowing this information can become useful at one point in life. so culture can be boxed, it just takes time to think of what to box. It can mean different values to different people…maybe because of the culture that they come from.

Do you know your culture?

    Hey Katie..
    Being Hispanic..do you eat a lot of their foods? Because like you said, that is important to them. What else is important to them? Or you?

    I come from Spain and Venezuela, no I don’t eat a lot of their foods because I’m a really picky eater. Something else that is very important to them is family, they are always taking care of each other and stay very close.
