The correct answer to this open question is the following.
I have in mind the group I belong to. The folklore that exists within my group has the purpose of honoring Mother Nature and it is an ingrained part of our belief system.
In my culture, there are many stories about the benefits that Mother Nature provided to us. That is why we honor and respect nature and write songs, create dances, and do ceremonies to thank mother nature for all the things it provides.
We thank the Sun because its rays mean life for all the creatures on earth. We thank the rain because water means life for the planet. We thank the wind because it allows us to live. And of course, we honor the land, the soil, for all the food it provides.
Dang this is long... lolll... but for me the words are small so I can’t answer :,)
