A Jasmine—a Sign of Mother’s Day


Mother is an important person for everyone’s life. For Mother’s Day of this year is going to arrive, many people are looking for things for paying respect to their mothers. I believe that a jasmine is the best thing for many people’s views. So, I take good information about meaning of the jasmine to offer you today.

Jasmine is known as the symbol of Mother's Day, 12th August of every year. The Mother's Day in Thailand has been established according to the effect of other countries' Mother's Day and the thought of ''Confucianism'' in term of gratefulness which is quite similar to the Thai old believe. The first Mother's Day in Thailand had been established on 10th March, 1943. However, because of the World War II, the celebration had been discontinued. After being revived so many times, finally, the Mother's Day had been changed to 12th August of every year as it is Her Majesty the Queen's birthday. Besides, jasmine had been set up as the symbol of Mother's Day since then.

Why does it have to be jasmine?

•Jasmine is easy to find according to Thailand geography and weather.
•The propitious feature of jasmine that give people the sense of purity and amenity.
•The nature of jasmine, which is the long last smell and all year blossoming, represents the love of a mother to her child.
•The property of healing and heart restoration of jasmine represents the mother's care on a child.
•The meaning of jasmine is ''You are the only one I love the most'' or ''You are the magnificent one for me''.

In my view, the profound meaning of a jasmine can be a good sign of showing love for a child’s love to a mother. The mother’s love is the pure love like the jasmine’s pure white. The mother’s love has no conditions or bids. It’s the love without ending up that a child can’t completely describe with speech or letters. Although my beloved mother passed away for 10 years, I still always think of her. I usually take a jasmine and a jasmine garland to put before her picture for showing respect to her in Mother’s Day of every year. For the Mother’s Day of this year is like that, I have already prepared a jasmine and a jasmine garland to pay respect to my mother. I bought the jasmine and jasmine garland, which were delicately made by a cripple man yesterday. I intend to take them to put before her picture tomorrow.

Happy Mother’s Day ^-^
