Courage at any age...

Yesterday, we got our Newsweek magazine with a lovely cover discussing Osama Bin Laden. I opened it up and saw this.

I felt so proud of Lorraine Barr. I can't imagine what it must have been like for her to deal with all these feelings and not know who it was "safe" to talk to about them.

I think our generation take it for granted that as GLBT people that it's just accepted, or at the very least discussed in an open forum. As I read her story I was touched by her act of bravery. The courage it must have taken for her to finally be able to talk about the love(s) in her life.

Many of us will never experience the ridicule and disgust that so many people felt and continue to feel towards things they don't understand.

Here's to you Lorraine! I hope that this opens doors, and frees your soul. Love is a beautiful thing and may you be blessed always!

Peace ya'll!

God Bless The Men and Women...

Who go out everyday to protect us all from the evil fuckers who want to do us harm. God bless their family and friends who will miss them, when one of those fuckers decides that their drug deal, or thievery or other illegal activity is more important than human life.

Every once in a while we get one but it doesn't make the loss of a loved one any easier to deal with.

God Bless the officers family and friends who are certainly mourning the death of a loved one today. And Our prayers are with the families of those injured in the line of duty.

Peace ya'll
