Mother’S Day Is A Day Of Love: What Do Moms Really Want On Mother’S Day?

SOME HISTORICAL FACTS ABOUT MOTHER’S DAY

Mother’s day historical tradition has its origins in ancient Greece. The mother goddess Rhea, wife of Cronus, was honoured on the 8th day of the month of May. Her festival was called Hilaria. In Rome, the mother goddess Cybele was celebrated with a spring festival called Megalensia, which fell on April 22. The mother Mary was also honoured on May 31, the day after Pentecost. Everywhere this celebration was dedicated to motherhood and the fertility of women.

The modern celebration of Mother’s Day was first proposed in 1872 by Julia Ward Howe. After the Civil War, she became outraged by the violence and wrote a manifesto calling for mothers to unite against war. In 1870 she wrote a proclamation suggesting that mothers should hold a day to promote peace.

In 1908, Anna Jarvis held a memorial service for her mother in Grafton, West Virginia. The service was so well attended that Mrs Jarvis began to promote the idea of a national Mother’s Day. In 1914, President Woodrow Wilson signed a resolution making Mother’s Day a national holiday.

MOTHERING SUNDAY CELEBRATION IN THE UK

In UK Mother’s Day was originally a church celebration, Mothering Sunday, which falls on the fourth Sunday of Lent. It was a day for people to visit their ‘mother church’ – the main church in their area.

Also, March 25th (or the nearest Sunday) is nine months before December 25th. It was traditionally a day off for UK servants, who could use it to return home and visit their mothers, since they wouldn’t get to see them during the rest of the year, on average.

WHY IS MOTHER’S DAY SO IMPORTANT?

Nowadays, mother’s day is celebrated all over the world and is a time to show our appreciation for all that mothers do for us.

So why is Mother’s Day so important? For many people, mothers are the most important people in their lives. They are the ones who love us no matter what and are always there for us. They teach us how to be kind and caring, and give us a sense of security and belonging. Many people also believe that mothers are the key to a peaceful and happy home. Mothers often have a special ability to put their children first and to always think of others before themselves. This selfless love is something that we should all aspire to

 A mother’s love is completely unconditional. A kid is a mother’s baby forever, whether he is 60 or becomes a tycoon, leader, or thinker. Mothers keep this amazing capacity for loving their children at all times and under all circumstances. This unique quality of mothers’ love makes them so distinctive for every child.

A mother’s love is not only physical but also emotional. A mother is the first person to whom her child tells all his secrets and problems. Mothers usually know how to comfort their children and make them feel better.

What is being a mom today? In a world where motherhood has many definitions, it’s hard to say what being a mom today really means.

Some people might think of motherhood as being primarily about raising children, while others may see it as a way to express their creativity or love through caring for others.

There are no wrong or right answers, but it does indicate that being a mother is a much more difficult task than it was in the past because they don’t get a day off. Mothering Sunday was established to give them a rest.
