Barriers Broken

I am so excited that The State, which is South Carolina's largest newspaper, published this wedding announcement yesterday.  Gay, interracial, Army veterans, raising sons, been together 27 years, good looking, accomplished, apparently happy and well adjusted, and on and on.  How many myths and prejudices did these guys just disprove simply by being out?  Did I say barriers broken?  More like bulldozed.  Plus, as of this posting, there are 65 comments in the guest book and everyone of them positive.  Congratulations Greg and William and Congratulations to The State!

And ther are no published reports of caravans of trucks with 'smelling salts' on their way to revive the local gentry.

Perhaps, just perhaps, peoples' hearts and minds are capable of accepting and loving their neighbors as themselves - especially when they share the same values of caring and commitment.

The "everyone of them positive" is the stunning part. Thank you for posting this news. I need a day-starter like this one!
