As the second Sunday of May approaches, people pay tribute to mothers everywhere, expressing gratitude for their love, strength and hard work. Around the world, people will gather together, call, send flowers, order chocolates, prepare breakfast in bed, or cherish memories of a loving mom.
In times of need or confusion, mothers are there to dole out encouragement, clarity and guidance. We turn to them for their years of experience and timeless wisdom.
And mothers are full of advice - whether you want it or not. Sometimes it's a rhyming anecdote or a traditional saying. Whether the wisdom you received was practical ("Treat people the way you want to be treated") or funny ("Take an Advil and keep going"), share it here.
