these days of token appreciation are funny. on one hand, it is nice to have a special time set aside for a specific person or intention, but then of course there is the idea that we should honor these people and hold those intentions year round. when it comes to "mother's day" I feel how it connects to earth day...not because the inventors of the holiday intended that but many people on the planet feel that this earth is our mother and if you have a terrible relationship or no relationship with the woman who birthed you or raised you, maybe you can spend today immersed in a beautiful, natural place and honor that experience, connect to the planet that you are inherently connected to and will return to- maybe "she" is your mother, at least in one sense.
