My Family Culture

• A description of the three items you would choose
• How you would explain to others what each of these items means to you
• Your feelings if, upon arrival, you were told that you could only keep one personal item and have to give up the other two items you brought with you
• Any insights you gained about yourself, your family culture, diversity, and/or cultural differences in general, as a result of this exercise

I would take a family wedding photo,my grandma's pillow she made for my daughter, and son. I would take the family photo because it would have my whole family in it including my grandfather, which is deceased and I love him so much and miss him so much. My grandmothers two pillow for my children because it means alot to them and myself because she hand knitted them just for my children. I would explain to the by showing them and explaining just the way I have explained here. My feelings would be crushed because I would give up the pillows and keep the photo because everyone is in that photo, and it is meaningful to me because alot of special people where at my wedding. I  have gained alot of insights because I have learned to appreciate my own traditions, family culture and even other cultures.
