Mother's
Day is an international holiday honoring mothers that is observed in many
nations. The modern version of the holiday is celebrated on the second Sunday
in May in the United States. Many other countries observe the holiday on this
day, while others do it at different periods of the year. On Laetare Sunday,
the fourth Sunday of Lent, the custom of permitting those who had migrated away
to visit their home parishes and mothers evolved during the Middle Ages. In the
United Kingdom, this became Mothering Sunday, which has mostly been superseded
by Mother's Day in modern times. On Sunday, May 8, 2022, Mother's Day will be
observed.
Mothers
and mothers-in-law are essential. They're probably the first people we meet
when we're born, and they love and care for us throughout our lives. Every
year, countries all around the world commemorate Mother's Day, a day devoted to
all moms on which we can express our gratitude. Every country that celebrates
Mother's Day does it in a variety of ways, rooted in distinct traditions and
enacted by individuals who appreciate the importance of honoring women.
Mother's
Day is a significant holiday in the Philippines. This is owing to the prominent
role of mothers in Filipino culture. Mum is known as the "ilaw ng
tahanan," or "house light," because of the love, joy, and
brightness she offers to the family. Bringing her breakfast in bed, taking her
out for lunch or dinner, giving her a card or a present, making a special phone
call to tell her how much you miss and love her, and simply showing up at the
family Mother's Day event to spend some time with her are all common ways to
treat Mum right on Mother's Day in the Philippines.
Mothers play an important role in the family, which is a powerful force for social integration and cohesion. The mother-child bond is critical for children's proper growth. Mothers are also breadwinners for their families, as well as carers. We may find our mothers irritating at times, yet she never fails to love us unconditionally. She always forgives us and showers us with the same true and pure love, no matter how many mistakes we make. She is the one who is always concerned about their children's happiness.
