So maybe my faith in humanity is on its way to being restored. Today I got a thank-you e-greeting from an address I didn't recognize. For a minute I was sure that I was going to release the MyDoom virus on my entire computer system, but I went ahead and clicked the link to the card. It was a thank-you note from a couple who received flowers via the DarrenBarefoot drive to provide flowers for gay couples marrying in San Francisco. The note said how special it was for this couple to receive the support from a myriad of people around the country and how it made them so happy.
(Happy sigh...) I'd like everyone out there to know how proud I am, not only of the people who are so brave to be gay and to be married, but of the mayor of San Francisco for allowing this to happen. We don't know what the next few weeks/months/years hold for gays and their civil liberties, but this is the first time I've felt truly proud to be American for at least...3 years and 3 months.
To everyone out there, be proud of who you are, and be yourself. Its never a sin to love.
