Equality


Clearly I haven't posted in awhile...but I think I'll be back to updating at least a little more regularly soon. I hope. We shall see. Henry's birthday is in TWO weeks, I'll have to as least post about that, right?

Anyway, I couldn't pass up on stopping to share my own thoughts on this historic moment in our country.

I think I've made it clear in the past that I am a Christian and I believe, for myself, in the Biblical definition of marriage (one man + one woman).

But I also live in America, 'land of the FREE', and I think that we should all have equal rights, opportunities, and pursuits of happiness.

I know a lot of my Christian friends cried out in despair at the court ruling earlier this week. I however, cried tears of joy. If you want freedom to practice your own religion, freedom to live YOUR life the way you feel fit, you should reevaluate the idea of taking the right from someone else.

I found this little image and thought it was perfect.


God commands us to love one another. We can disagree and still agree on the simple fundamental fact that we all deserve equality.

Now if we could only tackle racism and sexism in the same way.
