So last night I had my first ever experience with Passover. One of my best friends has some Jewish relatives and she invited me over to take part in this tradition that her family has done for years. Both sides of my family are Mormon, so I don't have a ton of experience with other religions. The food was delicious and I really enjoyed learning more about this religion's beliefs. We are currently studying Judaism in my Survey of World Religions class, so it tied in perfectly. So what? I haven't really been anywhere. Growing up, we didn't have the money to travel, so I haven't seen much of the world. I felt so cultured learning about this holiday. Now what? I want to keep learning. I'm firm in my membership with the LDS church, but I don't see the harm in learning more and understanding about the beliefs of my friends. I want to start to experience and learn more about other religions and cultures.
