Back to my favorite topic. I am creating a meme. Why do you do halakha--whatever that means to you--I'd like to know. Simply add in comments or stick it in your lj. Whatever you choose, let me know that you did, so I can read it! There are several standard answers. I assume that yours will begin with one of the traditional categories and then branch of from there. People probably have more than one reason, unless their reason is the first one, in which case, that may be enough. here was my remembering from Rabbi Golinkin's book
1) Because Gd said so
2) Respect for Gd
3) Because my ancestor's did
4) In respect for Jewish tradition
5) Chain of tradition/jewish survival
 6) Expression of Jewishness
 7) It is fun

better choices )
