IOTD …. Image of the Day …. “Special Edition …. Cinco de Mayo …. “!!

~~May 5, 2017~~ 

IT’S FIVE O’CLOCK SOMEWHERE ALWAYS

Americans usually make a bigger deal of this date than Mexicans do.

I guess because a party is enjoyed anytime.

Wonder how many will celebrate this year!

Cinco de Mayo, Spanish for “Fifth of May”, is a celebration held on May 5. The date is observed to commemorate the Mexican Army’s unlikely victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862, under the leadership of General Ignacio Zaragoza.

In the United States, Cinco de Mayo is sometimes mistaken to be Mexico’s Independence Day – the most important national holiday in Mexico – which is celebrated on September 16, commemorating the Cry of Dolores that initiated the war of Mexican independence from Spain.

~IN HER OWN WORDS~

“IOTD” is image of the day, a concept I came up with. I teach visual meditative therapy – or in easy terms – a mini mental holiday. For some people it is very difficult for them to get their image right. I post an image a day for people to use in their mini mental vacay. Some are serious, some are silly, and some are just beautiful!”
