Last Election Day, I wrote a post about marriage equality. It was a big deal to me, especially because the Maine legislature had already voted in favor of same sex marriage in 2009 before a ballot referendum resulted in a "people's veto" of this important law. It felt like our state's second chance to do the right thing.
Now that the issue is on a national stage, I feel much the same way, which is this:
I agree on all fronts. Last night I even got annoyed that this whole darn thing is even going on..because of a few decision makers who don't have a clue what's going on in the world. And then I got really happy that this whole thing is going on – for our children and our children's children.
I agree! Fingers crossed that things are changing!
High Five on this one! I couldn't agree more with everything you wrote. It feels like we are on the verge of real positive change on this issue. We may not be where we need to be yet…but we're at least moving in the right directionl. Love is Love indeed! Stopping by from SITS.
Thanks, Marie! Fingers crossed. 🙂
God, I so hope you are right. I so hope that our children do not come to see this as monumental…I hope they grow up realizing that love is love. So well said. :)-The Dose Girls
I hope so, too. One, because I like being right. And two, because this feels SO IMPORTANT.
Look how far Maine came in just a few short years!
If there's hope in Maine there's hope everywhere right?
