About "Julia Ward Howe, the author of the Battle Hymn of the Republic, became so horrified with the carnage of the Civil War that she began advocating for a Mother's Day of Peace. She published the Mother's Day Peace Proclamationin 1870. By 1873, 18 cities celebrated Mother's Day of Peace celebrations - some of these celebrations continued for 30 years. Still today, we have the enduring legacy of Mother's Day."

Happy Mother's Day Usefilm....

Excellent DOF Gayle. I like your choice of B/W. Fascinating history. I did not know Mother's Day came about in this fashion.

Excellent photo reportage, Gayle. Speaks volumes without needing any verbal reinforcement. Nicely judged "About," too. How many people know that Mother's Day was originally Mother's Day of Peace? I wonder...

Love this, I've never taken the time to look up the origin of the occasion. It really is worth knowing and particularly relevant these days. Well done Gayle.

Cheers
Rina.

It is ironic, isn't it? In this electronic age, when the sights and sounds that are the horrors of war can be beamed into our homes...aren't.

Happy Mother's Day, Gayle.
Hug the people you love.
