You know? I really am.

(please don't skip this - read the story at the end)

I know all the friends on my LJ are open and not closed minded and open to those who are different, but sometimes we have to remember the struggle that people face everyday just because they are viewed as 'different' to the norm. Hopefully as the days and years pass there will be no such divide between what is considered 'normal' and 'different'.


I am the mother who told her lesbian daughter to invite her girlfriend over for dinner.

I am the father who punished his son for calling you a fag.

I am the preacher who told my congregation that love, not hate, is the definition of a true follower of God.

I am the girl who did not learn the meaning of "homosexual" until high school but never thought to question why two men might be kissing.

I am the woman who argues (quite loudly and vehemently) with the bigots who insist that you do not have the right to marry or raise children.

We are the high school class who agrees, unanimously, along with our teacher, that love should be all that matters.

If you agree, repost this. Do it. You don't have to be afraid. You can handle it. You're stronger than you think.

I am making a difference. Hate will not win.

Once again, 'The Psycho Psychic Friends' Connection' amazes me. Unbelieveable.

Same. Exact. Time.

Thank you, babycakes.
