Hello friends, happy new month, we hope that this new month brings us good tidings and allows us to achieve our goals set in place to grow and achieves success in life.
The month of May started in a great way following the holidays that happened in my country celebrating the International workers day. For some reason, I appreciate the fact that a special day is set aside for workers to be celebrated. It is not easy to be dedicated and hardworking to your job and no regards is shown for it. There are people who are very consistent and hardworking in their jobs but for some reasons they are not appreciated because the earn a salary for it but that should not be the case, everyone should be acknowledged for doing something good and adding value to a company or an organization.
The month of May is always set aside all over the world especially my country Nigeria where the workers do not go to work on that day but rather the either stay at home or attend official parties thrown for them to celebrate them. While the month of May started yesterday as the first day of the month there are activities that would happen throughout the month of May religiously.
For Catholics, the month of May is one that is set aside and dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary. In this month, the Catholic doctrine holds that Catholics are to be seriously involved in the rosary recitation. We are encouraged to pray fervently the Rosary everyday for the month of May by means of commiting the life of Jesus through the Decades of the holy rosary. The essence of doing thia is to pray through Mother Mary to intercede on behalf of the people personally and generally for individual petitions and the country in general. Hence, this month holds a spiritual significance for Catholics, all that happens here is they create time to Honor Mary as the mother of Jesus Christ and reflecting her virtues.
In addition, the month of May is one that observes the mental health awareness. The general idea behind the raising of awareness against the issues surrounding mental health is to help people balance their life so has not to be victims of stress, stigma and so on. Due to the current situation of the country, I believe raising awareness on how people should take care of their health both physically and mentally is good. In view of mental health awareness month, what organizations, NGOs, companies or individuals do is to educate people on common health conditions, there are signs and symptoms that they should watch out for. Also, they encourage people to speak up about issues they are facing rather than bottling it up. Hence, the general activity for this awareness is the Promotion of well-being through organized workshops, seminars, events etc. they share tips on maintaining good mental health to people.
In conclusion, these are basically the major events that would be happening in the month of May. In view of all these, it shows that it is going to be a busy month coupled with people's set goals and the strategy set in place to achieve them. Hopefully we achieve problems and success in our endeavors.
