On my mind....

Last night I read THIS post from a fellow voxer...and it's impact not only affected my sleep last night, but has also remained on my mind all day.

The thought of this family's children, who were denied the right to be by the side of their dying mother, breaks my heart into a million pieces. And knowing that a woman's partner (for 18 years) was kept from spending what would be the final few hours with her partner, rages me beyond words. The cruel actions of hospital staff left a dying and probably frightened woman to die alone in a hospital bed. There is NOTHING that can justify that!!! ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!

A person's sexual preference or choice does not matter. We are each individuals placed on this planet for the time we are given. Each of us hurt, laugh, dream, and have hopes for the future. We are all human beings.

And each of us has a desire to love and be loved.

Disagree with a person's sexual choice if you must, but keep in mind that people are human beings regardless of their sexual orientation. How we treat each other goes a long way in demonstrating our own humanity, or lack of it.

The right to love is a human right.. not a heterosexual one.
