Day 2: Something You Feel Strongly About

This one is very vague. I can pretty much write about anything. I'm not sure if this is asking more about a belief or an idea or even a passion. I think that something I feel strongly about is homosexuality. Personally, I am ok with it. Gays should have the right to marry. I don't care if its thought of as a sin in some religions. I'm pretty sure the same religions say that premarital sex is a sin, yet there are unwed mothers every where, in fact I'm pretty sure that society views that as an acceptable sin because there is a TV show called Teen Mom. Also, we have divorce as a sin to some religions, but the divorce rate is so high now. Not to mention, getting remarried is considered adultery. Yeah, I'm pretty sure straight people have screwed up the concept of marriage worse than a gay couple would. I will admit that society has become more accepting of it, but there are still groups of people who are against it. And for those who are, I think its absurd. What if you weren't allowed to marry the person you loved? How terrible would that be? I think that everyone should have the right to happiness. And sometimes happiness is waking up next to your best friend, wearing a ring to symbolize the commitment you have to one another, and the state recognizes that commitment as marriage, and you get to have a family. There is nothing wrong with loving someone, even if that person is of the same gender. Love comes up unexpectedly, and I believe that people should be able to express that love in any way they choose. You should get to be with that person who makes you smile inside and out, who gives you butterflies, who accepts you completely, who makes you laugh, who encourages you and makes you a much better person. I know that I am going to get to marry the love of my life and I think that every person should be able to also.

I saw this the other day and I believe that it is 100% true. As the saying goes "Only God can Judge me"
so think about that before you judge someone else for any reason.
