Mother figures play a vital role in shaping our lives, and it’s essential to recognize and honor their contributions to your upbringing on Mother’s Day and daily.

Whether it’s a biological mother, a stepmother, a grandmother, an aunt, a godmother, or any other maternal figure, they all deserve our love and appreciation.

When and Who Established Mother’s Day

The origins of Mother’s Day are traced back to ancient civilizations, where maternal figures and motherhood are celebrated through various traditions and festivities. However, the modern-day celebration of Mother’s Day has its roots in the United States.

The official celebration of Mother’s Day was established in 1914 by US President Woodrow Wilson following a campaign led by Anna Jarvis. Jarvis (1864-1948) was an American activist and the founder of Mother’s Day in the United States. After her mother passed away in 1905, Anna Jarvis campaigned for a holiday to honor mothers’ sacrifices for their children. She believed that a national day of recognition for mothers would be a way to show gratitude and appreciation for their hard work and devotion.

The first Mother’s Day was celebrated on May 9, 1914, and it quickly gained popularity throughout the United States and other countries. Today, Mother’s Day is celebrated in many countries around the world, often on different dates and with varying traditions and customs. Nevertheless, the core idea of showing appreciation and love to mothers remains the same.

Mother’s Day is celebrated in various ways depending on individuals’ and families’ cultures, traditions, and personal preferences. Here are some common ways people celebrate Mother’s Day:

1. Gift-giving: Many people give their mothers or mother figures gifts of flowers, chocolates, jewelry, or sentimental items.
2. Special meals or outings: It’s common for families to gather for a special meal.
3. Quality time: Spending time with one’s mother is a meaningful celebration of Mother’s Day.

Mother’s Day Can be a Day of Self Care.

Mother’s Day is an excellent opportunity for mothers to practice self-care and take some time to focus on themselves.

Take time daily, not only on Mother’s Day but every day, to rejuvenate by practicing self-care that can positively impact your well-being.

Ultimately, the most important aspect of celebrating Mother’s Day is to show love, appreciation, and gratitude to the mother figures in our lives.

Give your mom some space so that she can rejuvenate and love you more.
