Mother’s Day

If we don’t have our mothers, our life would not be fun.

”Mother” is a powerful and honest word which shows gentleness, warmness and love.

In Iraq, Mother Day is in March 21 which is at the start of the sprig. Ali Amin, an Egyptian journalist and writer thought about the idea that we celebrate Mother’s day at first, however, Mother’s day is different from each country.

History and ritual depend on the country but every country is the same as celebrating Mother’s Day to show respect of the important role for their children’s life.

Mothers in Iraq have been suffering from the unceasing wars since 1960’s.

Mothers had to send their son to the war as soldiers and they lost their sons one after another. Were mothers in Iraq born for distress and tears? They have been holding full of sadness of losing their son in anytime in the Iraqi history,

Iraqi people, however, were creating the pleasure and enjoyment to the heart of Mothers by giving the words of thanks or presents.

I wish healing and pleasure will be brought to all of the patient mothers. I will give the word of gratitude to mothers all over the world.
