Come in to my forest and I may just munch on you for lunch!

My friends and fellow citizens;
Know that someone hears your voice , who listens and understands.
Someone who does not judge you but supports your right to love whom you please.
Know that someone cries for you and hates the discrimination shown to you.
Take comfort that there are those of us willing to fight for your rights as citizen and a human being.
Those willing to stand and say "No , we will not tolerate intolerance!"

In my life I have seen hate and bigotry towards blacks and other minorities. I have seen women treated as slaves, sex objects and trash to be discarded. I have seen the poor shunned  , I have seen the mentally impaired or retarded
locked away and I have seen the elderly deserted and forgotten.
If I stand not against these things, then I stand not at all but fail miserably as a decent human being. For those that sit by and watch,  it is if they have partaken in the hate by their silence , neglecting to cry out to defend those being discriminated against!

Each night as I kiss my husband goodnight I am so thankful that the world allows me to love and be with this man I love so much! When I see your plight I realize how each time I hold his hand and walk down the street without judgment or stares from strangers that you do not receive this courtesy. I can not imagine the pain and loneliness you must sometimes feel!

But know that you can count on my support till the fight is over! I will march, vote, sign petitions and do what ever it takes to help you obtain the right that other humans have to marry the person you love and to adopt children!

I hope that I will live to see the day that "We wouldn't be judged for who we loved but whether we loved at all".
