Frank Hanna: Making Sense of Money

What is money? Really, in the grand scheme of things, what is money? Its obvious that money holds value, a value that we have assigned to it, and therefore it is able to provide a great many things. Yet money is, ultimately, nothing more than colored paper, and yet for so many more, money (and materialism) play a very large role in people's lives. After all, none of us can escape the need for money because so much of our world is interconnected for economical survival that we must pursue money to some degree.

However, Frank Hanna, a well-established Atlanta businessman and philanthropist, wants to take the idea of money, having money, and contentment with money (and materialism) to a new level. . .a deeper one.
In his recent publication, What Your Money Means, Frank Hanna discusses are variety of insightful issues that deal with money, ranging from the responsibility of having money, to determining how much money is enough, avoiding the pitfalls of greed, and how to make money work for you and others as opposed to making you work for money.

Frank Hanna delivers a very reflective, penetrating look at money and how we should all be more cognoscente of how we use it. If you are looking to "get more for your money" take a look at What Your Money Means and gain a new, more fulfilling perspective.

Celebrating Our Mothers: A Brief History of Mother's Day

Many of us on the second Sunday of May stop the routine of our daily lives and give special attention to our mothers. Known as Mother's Day, this particular date wasn't always celebrated as it typically is today.

Originally, Mothers Day had much more of a spiritual focus than it did an anthropological one. Rather, often times goddesses, rather than motherhood, were the ones to be celebrated and showered with gifts. Rich with symbolism, this day was more about "Mother Nature" than actual mothers. . .

It has been only recently (1600s in Europe, 1870s in North America) that the focus was expanded to include actual mothers. Today's United States practice of Mother's Day is almost exclusively about actual mothers and motherhood and now the symbolic and spiritual nature that once originated with this day is all but gone.

Likewise, in American culture flowers are the most popular of all Mother's day gifts given. Typically, the white carnation is considered the traditional "Mother's Day flower."
Today, Mother's Day is now celebrated in over 100 countries (though not all celebrate it on the second Sunday of May)!!

One thing remains, however, mothers around the world are indeed special!!
