Joe. My. God's "The Goodbye Song"
Read this then tell me about why we allow, encourage even, some to withhold rights from others. And why many of the others acquiesce in such.
Rights may be a gift from beyond, but they are secured in this lifetime by the exertion of power. Power can be an appropriately chosen word to the ear just as much as it can be a bullet to the brain.
Read. Think. Act. It doesn't have to be revolutionary. An increment, a small change, a taking of the opportunity to tell someone else of the truth of our loves. Of our losses. Or to speak up for those whose loves are denied.
