The history of Mother's Day goes back to the US, where a woman named Anna Jarvis desired the day to be commemorated because of her mother's wish. After her demise, a memorial was held for her at St. Andrew's Methodist Church in West Virginia. Jarvis's way of honoring her mother eventually got picked up by people worldwide to commemorate the day as Mother's Day. Gradually, the idea of Mother's Day struck a chord with people, and this day began to be celebrated globally. In different parts of the world, Mother's Day is celebrated to honor motherhood and acknowledge the love and efforts of mothers.
