When family traditions lose their meaning

Our family has been going through the motions of holiday traditions that used to feel meaningful, but none of us really believe in them the same way anymore and we're all pretending everything is fine. Some of us have found new forms of faith, others have moved away from belief entirely, but we keep showing up to these rituals that feel increasingly hollow.
