How the Mysteries of the Holy Rosary Came About: Joyful Mystery

For Roman Catholics worldwide, October is the month of the Holy Rosary. Being a devotee of the Holy Mother, I have always strived to pray the Rosary daily. When I pray, I try to contemplate the Savior’s life in relation to mine. Over the years, I feel I’ve become so used to it that it sometimes becomes mundane and automatic. This article aims to collate the events of how the Joyful mysteries of the Holy Rosary came about.

Now and then, it’s a good practice to let your reigns loose and watch your little ones enjoy their hearts out with freedom. But because we love our children, don’t we care about the intrinsic and long-term happiness they can get if we give them tasks which can give them a sense of fulfillment and something valuable in the future?

Why Early Intervention is Important

Working as a Pediatric Occupational Therapist, I meet children across all ages, from 0 to 18 years old. Probably a big chunk are kids 3 to 5 years old. I won’t deny that this is probably my favorite age range to treat. Early intervention encompasses this range and younger.

Why, you ask.
