International Women`s Day is one of the most beautiful holidays that welcomes springtime with lots of flowers and loving compliments.
In today`s Russia and Ukraine International Women`s Day is a holiday when women enjoy being taken care of by their men and children. 8 March is kind of a combination of St. Valentine`s and Mother`s Day. It is a wonderful day of womanhood, love, flowers and presents.
Women`s Day was celebrated already in ancient Rome. Matrons (free married women) got presents or other nice treats from their husbands.
Even female slaves received gifts and were granted a couple of work-free hours. Wearing festive gowns and flowers in their hair, women went to temples of Vesta, the Roman Goddess of the hearth and home.
The most popular presents are chocolate bars, flowers, especially mimosas, daffodils and tulips. 8 March is celebrated everywhere: in offices, schools, families and, of course, in private.
Students and businessmen prepare nice surprises for their classmates and colleagues. Children paint something or do handicrafts as gifts for their mothers and grannies. Men come home with flowers for their wives and candies for their daughters.
You have great opportunity to make this day special for the ladies you are corresponding with! Or maybe it is wonderful chance to start new relationship with the lady you liked but you hadn’t occasion to write?
;) It is high time for you to find your love – don’t miss it!!!!
