According to www.history.com, “The nation’s first Father’s Day was celebrated on June 19, 1910, in the state of Washington. However, it was not until 1972 - 58 years after President Woodrow Wilson made Mother’s Day official that the day honoring fathers became a nationwide holiday in the United States.” President Richard Nixon signed it into law in 1972 making it a permanent national holiday the 3rd Sunday in June.
Given the staunch patriarchy in our society, it’s surprising to me that Mother’s Day was made official and 58 years prior. Well, with equanimity, on this day I honor and thank my son’s father and my beloved father who passed away so unexpectedly in 1961. I feel eternally grateful to him for being my ally and loving me unconditionally and so blessed to know him even if it was for a very short time. Although I still miss him every day, I draw comfort in trusting that his etheric presence continues to guide me from beyond.
