Does anybody have any stories of oral traditions told in their family? my mom and i were trying to answer this questions and literally have none. our family has zero traditions lol.

My family has one that is told around christmas time.

My uncle started doing this for us every christmas morning when we would wait for our parents and aunts and uncles to wrap the presents outside. He told us the story of the patient donkey. basically what happened was a donkey and his owner were walking in a desert on their way to an oasis. The donkey asked if they were almost there many times and each time the owner would respond with, patience, donkey, patience. He would repeat that until our parents were done with our presents and they let use out. I am not sure if that is the type of tradition you were talking of.

We also have another where on each others birthdays, no matter how early they have to wake up, we would wake them up singing happy birthday.

Another odd one, lol, is on the first day of every month the first person to say "rabbit rabbit" wins (that one is strange lol)

what class or school are you in i may

the play romeo and juliet was one of the most famous love tragedies ever written. this love story unfortunately had a fatal ending. many people argue over why the lovers had died, was it over free will or fate?  

the death of romeo and juliet was partially because of free will. the fact that romeo and juliet got married knowing that there was a bitter feud between their families, the montague and capulet’s. this feud brought on many problems, such as the murder of tybalt by romeo. juliet knew that this might be a problem for her and romeo. juliet had said: “what’s in a name”? which explains her ill fate of being a capulet and romeo being a montague. when romeo tells his servant “ ay, mine own…show more content…

i believe they had died over the love they had for each other, strong enough that their lives could end so suddenly if something horrible had come between them, and that was exactly how it happened. this tragedy occurred within five days of the two meeting, they experienced love at first sight, got married and quickly were dead. free will became a part of this when juliet decided to take friar laurence’s advise in inhaling a potion that will make people assume she is died but will awake in 42 hours prier to when she took it. when romeo had heard the news that juliet was dead, he assumed it was true, and responded with the line; “well juliet, i will lay with thee tonight”. to me this line indicated how he feels for juliet by dying in her will. the fact that free will didn’t take control of the story; it left fate to be the murder of the lovers. fate first kicked in when their eyes met at the capulet party. when romeo and juliet spoke, their words had powerful contentment; they had such a strong feeling for one another that they could lay in each other’s arms forever. their happiness didn’t last long; there were many reasons for this, for example; the marriage lord capulet arranged between paris and juliet. i believe that the plot of the play thus far leads the audience to believe that the deaths were a result of fate. the last act will determine once and for all if it is fate or free will. romeo again challenges fate.
