This is true and I would like to add that these ceremonies have different colors in different societies but the truth remains the same ...time flies:

Ceremonies that mark important transitional periods in a person's life, such as birth, puberty, marriage, having children, and death. Rites of passage usually involve ritual activities and teachings designed to strip individuals of their original roles and prepare them for new roles. - dictonary.com

Make individual of the society functional is a great service to humanity. Unfortunately, there is primarily something wrong with the man made rules in this world that cause a lot of negative outcome and dysfunctional individual is one of them. I wish you good luck.

Steem On!
