How it's supposed to look
Yesterday I attended the wedding of a gay couple who has been together in a loving, committed relationship for 22 years.
Twenty two years.
It was a simple ceremony, out in a quiet garden. There was a lot of laughing and a lot of tears. Everyone brought food to share, and in lieu of gifts, M & B requested that people make donations to Equality for All, to stop Proposition 8 from passing in California.
And as the wedding officiant proudly proclaimed, "And now, by the powers vested in my by the State of California..." everyone broke into spontaneous applause.
Really, this is the way it's supposed to be.

It's the way it's gonna be.
Thank you for sharing the joy.
Thanks for the comment! It's time the world shares in the joy :)
couldn't agree more my dear. Isn't it lovely to be witness to such loving events?
I only wish more people were able to witness such loving events. I have to believe that would put a stop to hatred.
