“Mother’s Day,” by Tinka Friend

Today is Mother’s Day, a celebration honoring all mother figures of the family or individual, as well as motherhood, maternal bonds, and the influence of mothers in society. The tradition of Mother’s Day endures and evolves. Just as Mother’s Day was the creation of multiple women,out of appreciation for the support and sacrifices of their mothers, the modern Mother’s Day celebrates the varied roles of mothers today. We also honor the way mothers have raised and nurtured their children with love and courage. Let’s take a moment of reflection and gratitude for the maternal figures who raised and guided us through the years.
