Festive Stress

How obliged do you feel to tradition?

How important are traditional feasts to you?

How much do they stress you?

How can you escape the stress?

Traditions come with up- and downsides.

There are societal expectations to face.

There are personal boundaries to defend.

There are familial traditions to weather.

We can focus on the parts that we enjoy,

yet mitigate the ones we dislike.

We can each find our own way of enjoying them,

while catering to tradition in balance with our boundaries.
