With old photos and a moving message, the President of the Republic, Aikaterini Sakellaropoulou, honors Mother’s Day.
PtD published on Facebook two photos from her personal file that represent her with her mother, grandmother and daughter.
“If today, on Mother’s Day, I become more personal, publishing an old photo with my grandmother, mother and daughter, it is because I was lucky enough to test the special relationship with each of them and realize, Growing up, how much our maternal bond determines us, how significantly it affects the way we connect with the world. ” Mrs. Sakellaropoulou writes.
“Biological or adoptive, the mother is the one that provides protection, security, love, affection, authority, the one that unites in its unique element, each time, physically, mentally and socially, that structures the complex being. Ours. She is to whom we refer, consciously or unconsciously, in each moment of our lives, the one that continues to be by our side, even when it no longer exists.
This year we celebrate Mother’s Day in the unprecedented conditions of the pandemic, conditions that make her role even more complex. Working mothers with young children at home and greater professional and domestic obligations, elderly or vulnerable mothers and grandmothers isolated from their children and grandchildren, mothers of single-parent families, mothers of children with serious health problems, have endured a great mental load during this time. We feel your anxieties and fears, we share your hopes and expectations, we respect and honor your resistance, strength and selfless offer. We draw strength from your presence and optimism from your example. Every day is theirs. “
