Each community or society has some peculiarity in way of life. More often than not such peculiarity has been passed down from many generations, and if well preserved, stands the test of time, remaining as pure and unique as was hundreds of years ago. In our country Kenya, most communities have preserved birth, marriage and funeral rituals for centuries. A child is for instance named according to the time of the day when they are born. One cannot marry from father or mother’s clan and people of the same clan have a specific direction where their departed’s heads face during burial. Those are some of the peculiarities in our culture. Anything unique in yours?

I’m trying to think of an example, but it seems like there are so many cultures within the United States that there is no consensus on what would be peculiar or singular to Americans. Our country is quite a melting pot of cultures and traditions.

Used to watch old western movies about cowboys and Red Indians. I think there's a lot in there!

@SIDIKIMPOLE Those movies are really heavy with exaggerations. Unfortunately, people think that is what life is really like here.

@AmbiePam They are movies yes, but I believe man becomes what man thinks. So with so much creativity then we are modifying our future!
