These successful women are grateful to their mothers for shaping them into the leaders they are today.
The celebration of motherhood on one day a year is believed to date back to ancient Greece and Rome, in honour of Rhea and Cybele, the mother goddesses. During the 1900s in America, Anna Jarvis organised the first Mother’s Day in memory of her late mum, to honour the sacrifices mothers make for their children. In many countries, it’s celebrated on the second Sunday in May.
MORE THAN JUST GIFTS
Repulsed by the rapid ommercialisation of this meaningful day, Anna urged people to stop buying flowers, candies, and cards. To celebrate her cause, we encourage you to reflect on all the things – big and little – that your mum has done for you. And to show her your appreciation!
