The love of a mother for her child is the epitome of selfless love and devotion. From the moment a baby comes into the world, a mother has an instinctive understanding of her newborn's needs. This relentless attention continues, as the years pass and the child becomes an adult, with little or no expectations in return. Some might even say that a mother's job is never-ending and is the most poorly rewarded in the world. Therefore, it is fitting that we have a special day known as Mother's Day, to thank our mothers for all their love and support, and to recognize the sacrifices they have made. Mother's Day Celebrations Across Cultures and Times Mother's Day is now celebrated with great joy in many countries around the world. Most countries celebrate the occasion on the second Sunday of May, while others celebrate it at different times of the year depending on local traditions. Although current Mother's Day celebrations are a relatively new phenomenon, throughout history there have been holidays that commemorate the spirit of motherly love. Starting from the ancient Greeks and Romans who organized annual spring festivals dedicated to their goddesses, up to the early Christians who held an annual celebration in dedication to the Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus Christ. Until the 19th century, "Mothering Sunday" in England was celebrated with children giving flowers and gifts to their mothers. Mother's Day celebrations as we know it are thanks to an American named Anna Jarvis. She lobbied the U.S. government long and hard to dedicate a day for all mothers. He finally succeeded in 1911, and Mother's Day has become increasingly popular ever since.
