I met a lesbian couple yesterday.  They were about 25 … and in love.

When they entered the room, delight followed them in.  They touched.  When one of them spoke to the group, her gaze included the beloved.  The love silently shouted to us all.

I’m learning to be brave, to ask questions intended to enhance life.

Do you hold hands when you walk down the street?

Yes!

I figured so.  I know that some quarters of society would be outraged about such a show of affection between two women.  Too bad for their narrow heads.  Love needs to be celebrated.  Like last night.

May you be happy together for the rest of your lives, dear ones
