Same Sex Marriage Legal!

I am so stoked! The California Supreme Court has ruled the Same Sex Marriage is legal! I am so, so incredibly happy!

When I heard the news on Thursday, I was so happy about it! Someone I know made a snide comment about it, and when asked me, with a completely disgusted look on her face, why I was to happy. It about broke my heart.

In our country, people have a right to equality. Who is anyone to say who someone else can love? As long as the love is between to consenting adults, then it should be legal. The government can't forbid people of different races from getting married. Civil Unions are not the same (Haven't we already had the separate but equal issue in America?)

I am so happy. This is a day I have been waiting for. What the world needs now, is love, sweet love, and why anyone would want to deny that of anyone else is beyond me.

A friend of mine said it best on Thursday. She said, "You know, I've always been for gay marriage. But now that I have my own children, I feel even strongly about it. I want my children to find love and to be happy, and if they happened to be gay, then I would want this for them. I would want them to have the right to be married."

Love. Love for your children. Love for your life partner. Love for your neighboy, your fellow man.

Love.

That's what life is all about, folks.
