What is mother's day? history of mother's day
There are many rumors about where Mother's Day originated. The most talked about one is that a woman named Anna Jarvis, a teacher residing in the US state of Virginia, wanted to celebrate every year for her mother, who passed away in 1905.
This celebration took place for the first time in 1908 in a school with 407 children and their mothers. Anna's attempt was not approved and formalized by the House of Representatives. Anna shared this situation with the leading names of the media and politicians, and as a result of these efforts, the second Sunday of 1914 was declared as Mother's Day. After a while, Anna, who saw that mother's day was commercialized, filed lawsuits but could not win any of them.
On the other hand, the tradition of Mother's Day also has a place in the Greek mythology of the Ancient Greeks. This special day begins with the annual spring festival celebrations in honor of Rhea, the mother of many gods and goddesses in Greek mythology. Ancient Romans also celebrated spring festivals in honor of the mother goddess Cybele 250 years before the birth of Jesus.
