For most people Mothers' Day is a very big deal, I know for me it is. It seems to me that Mother's' Day is much more advertised than Fathers' Day. Wonder why that is...a few of my thoughts:
- Women as a whole are unappreciated within society, so the only way for a female to be accepted into good favor with society is to give birth to a male heir. Sure that's going way back, but if Mothers' Day was to celebrate the fact of, it would bring along more incentive.
- The many many hours of pushing and shoving of your big head through a tiny flexible hole. Needless to say there are other ways of coming out of your mother today, but way back when, that's all there was...watch Roots, there's a scene of that happening.
- Most fathers today leave. It is easy for a man to leave his child and it's mother, leaving the mother to raise the child solely. Because this happens, mothers are given extra credit for raising a successful son, if you listen to just about any rapper who recieves any kind of award in any kind of award show - I don't care if it's Lil' Wayne at the CMA's winning Male Vocalist of the Year - he or she will always thank his or her mother first.
Just some thought upon Mothers' Day, stick around might do a Fathers' Day one too when it comes around. But I doubt it, till I get a git that is.
