Just Love...
As many of you already know, I will be getting married next month. Wow! so much to do in such little time! I have gotten some wonderful deals( i heart craigslist), tried to stay as true to my philosophy of simple,yet fun, leave a little footprint on the earth as possible, and most of all, just have a ceremony and party that not only celebrates mine and JJ's union, but celebrates those who are nearest and dearest to our hearts. A lot of people are going above and beyond to make our day special, and we are very fortunate to have such wonderful( and creative!!!) people in our lives. I have been very impressed how people are putting together their talents ( baking, decorating, organization, keeping the bride sane ;o)) to make our dream day a reality. It really warms my heart to think of all the effort that has been made. Hell even the school I am working at donated all the napkins,plates and forks!

But in the midst of all that is going on with planning the wedding, I have completely taken for granted that we can get married, without a thought. No legal hassle, no one protesting our union or calling us horrible names for wanting to love each other. So many people out there who are in love and want to spend their lives together do not get this choice to just marry. They fight and struggle personal hardships at work, school, even their families... just because they love someone of the same sex. So especially today I wanted to take a moment to send my heart out to those who cannot openly( and legally) express their love and commitment to each other. Its sad in this day and age, and quite frankly saddens me in a way that I wish I could convey in words.

Love overcomes all boundaries. It does not know labels. We as humans put them there. lets take them away, and simply... love.
