In The Grapes of Wrath John Steinbeck asked if we don't know our heritage, how can we know who we are? The dictionary defines heritage as an inheritance, something that is passed down from preceding generations, heritage includes the treasure trove of values and the traditions which were cherished by our ancestors and appreciated enough today to be saved by our descendants of tomorrow. Our heritage is determined by our ancestors, associates, teachers and mentors, it is tempered by our environs and the times in which we live. It is not the honor that we take with us, but the heritage that we leave behind that forms the perception of a society and its communities.
