She is one of the most important people in our lives. Without her, we simply wouldn't be here! She gave us life and she guided us to adulthood. And even when we grow up, we turn to her for advice of all kinds and to find a comforting shoulder when we are sad. Many of us will be on May 14 to say thank you to our mother. Thank you for what she has done for us since we were little and thank you for everything she still does. But Mother's Day is also an opportunity to thank all those women who love us and carry us in their hearts without having any biological link with us. The mothers of hearts are just as important for our balance. But maybe you are wondering where this tradition of celebrating our moms in May comes from? Are they celebrated everywhere at the same time around the world? And above all, what to give to this exceptional woman? Origin of Mother's Day The first traces of Mother's Day can be traced back to antiquity. Indeed, in ancient Greece, spring gave rise to many ceremonies in honor of Rhea, the mother of Zeus. Among the Romans, homage is paid to matrons, the wives of Roman citizens. All these festivals emphasized fertility. Among the first Christians, the month of May became the month when we pay homage to Mary, the mother of Jesus. Then in the 15th century, among Christians in England, the fourth Sunday of Lent gradually became “Mothering Day”, a day when motherhood was celebrated more particularly. Closer to home, in the United States, Julia Ward Howe, is a writer and activist for women's rights who lived in the 1800s. She was a member and founder of several associations which aimed to defend the rights of women. In 1872 she published Appeal to Womanhood Throughout the World. This text would later be known as the Mother's Day Proclamation. This publication calls on women around the world to unite for peace. It's not quite Mother's Day as we know it today. A few years later, in 1872, Ann Reeves Jarvis tried to establish a Mothers Friendship Day, a “friendship day for mothers”. She had already worked for several years to have the work of mothers recognized in society and with their children. This day was to be an opportunity to pay tribute to all these women. It is his daughter, Anna Jarvis, who will succeed in making her mother's dream come true. From 1905, the year of the death of Ann Reeves Jarvis, her daughter multiplied the requests for the creation of an official day to celebrate mothers. Her mother having died on May 8, she suggests that this feast be held on the second Sunday of May. It was President Wilson who formalized the celebration in 1914. Since then, the festival has grown and is celebrated all over the world. However, the date of Mother's Day is not the same on all continents. For example, in most European countries, mothers are celebrated on the last Sunday in May. The best gift for mom Traditionally, it was the children who offered a gift to their mother: a poem, a bouquet of wildflowers or a drawing. But the children are growing up. Once an adult, it is always possible to underline the importance of a mother, whether it is our own, that of our children or a mother of heart that we have chosen for ourselves. To celebrate this holiday, you need a gift that matches the love you have for that special woman. What could be better than a jewel to highlight this precious relationship?
