&lt;p&gt;A day just for mothers!  The person who thought up this day did so the year her mother died. (1905)  She campaigned for three years for this recognition of Mother&amp;rsquo;s Day and in 1908 it came into being in the United States. It&amp;rsquo;s usually celebrated the second Sunday in May.  Here are the Wiki facts: &amp;ldquo;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The modern holiday of Mother&amp;rsquo;s Day was first celebrated in 1908, when Anna Jarvis held a memorial for her mother at St Andrew&amp;rsquo;s Methodist Church in Grafton, West Virginia. &amp;hellip; Her campaign to make &amp;ldquo;Mother&amp;rsquo;s Day&amp;rdquo; a recognized holiday in the United States began in 1905, the year her mother, Ann Reeves Jarvis, died.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;  Having this holiday helps families to bond and so I think it&amp;rsquo;s a great idea despite all the commercialism that surrounds the day.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Mum's the Word!</title><link>/posts/mums-the-word/</link><pubDate>Sun, 11 May 2014 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/posts/mums-the-word/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;“The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new.&amp;quot; and so in you the child your mother lives on and through your family continues to live&amp;hellip; so at this time look after yourself and your family as you would your mother for through you all she will truly never die.”    ―&lt;/em&gt; &lt;a href="https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/2856822.Osho"&gt;Osho&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
