Happy Labor Day !





Happy Labor Day.This is an important holiday to celebrate. It usually has 2 meanings for people. One being of course celebrating the worker which helps to make the country run and also acknowledging the end of summer.
 
Here is some information on how Labor Day was founded .The form for the celebration of Labor Day was outlined in the first proposal of the holiday: A street parade to exhibit to the public "the strength and esprit de corps of the trade and labor organizations", followed by a festival for the workers and their families. This became the pattern for Labor Day celebrations. Speeches by prominent men and women were introduced later, as more emphasis was placed upon the civil significance of the holiday. Still later, by a resolution of the American Federation of Labor convention of 1909, the Sunday preceding Labor Day was adopted as Labor Sunday and dedicated to the spiritual and educational aspects of the labor movement.
 

The holiday is often regarded as a day of rest and parties. Speeches or political demonstrations are more low-key than May 1 Labor Day Celebrations in most countries, although events held by labor organizations often feature political themes and appearances by candidates for office, especially in election years.Forms of celebration include picnics, barbecues, fireworks displays, water sports, and public art events. Families with school-age children take it as the last chance to travel before the end of summer recess. Similarly, some teenagers and young adults view it as the last weekend for parties before returning to school, although school starting times now vary.


Labor Day has come to be celebrated by most Americans as the symbolic end of the summer. In high society, Labor Day is considered the last day of the year when it is fashionable to wear white. In the U.S., most school districts that started summer vacation in early June will resume school the day after this day, while schools that had summer vacation begin on the Saturday before Memorial Day in late May will have already been in session since late August. However this tradition is changing as many school districts end in early June and begin mid-August.


Since we are at the end of summer and now are entering fall, we at WellLife have a wide range of fall articles that can assist you for this time of year. Also, we have a useful article that gives parent tips for their children going back to school by Focus On Mental Wellness.If you are interested in contacting me for various writing projects, you can reach me by Email.

Summertime Is Here




    Summer is here. I love this season. It is a time where temperatures get warmer wherever you live. Children and college students are out for the school year and everyone is taking their yearly vacation to get away. Summer is really special as a kid waking up every morning and know that there is no school and you can spend time with your friends for the next few months. Summer never lasts long enough, though. I hope you and your family have a wonderful summer.

Happy Memorial Day !



      Happy Memorial Day !  As we know, this holiday recognizes those that were lost during their service to our country. Many people observe Memorial Day by visiting cemeteries and memorials. A national moment of remembrance takes place at 3 pm local time. Another tradition is to fly the flag of the United States at half-staff from dawn until noon local time. Volunteers often place American flags on each grave site at national cemeteries.For many Americans, the central event is attending one of the thousands of parades held on Memorial Day in large and small cities all over the country. Most of these feature marching bands and an overall military theme with the National Guard and other servicemen participating along with veterans and military vehicles from various wars. My thoughts and prayers go out to those who lost their life in defending our country and those who continue to protect us. God Bless.

Also, Memorial Day is generally associated with the start of the summer season, it is common tradition to inaugurate the outdoor cooking season on Memorial Day with a barbecue.
