I saw this man on the Metro this past Monday, and asked him who the flowers were for. They were for his wife. They’ve been married for 47 years. Every Monday, he brings her home flowers after work. My heart died at that moment.



Gorgeous.

I have defined doing the right thing as treating all persons with equality. And that equality includes the definition of marriage. I fear that to do otherwise would fly in the face of my upbringing.

There are people who have said that I’m being brave for being openly supportive of gay marriage, gay adoption, basically of gay rights; but with all due respect I humbly dissent, I’m not being brave, I’m being a decent human being. And I don’t think I should receive an award for that or for merely stating what I believe to be true, that love is a human experience not a political statement, however, I acknowledge that sadly we live in a world where not everybody feels the same. My family and I will help the good fight continue until that long awaited moment arrives, when our rights are equal and when the political limits on love have been smashed.
