I just cant understand....

I believe i just dug myself a huge grave this up and coming PBL project. You see for this project we were supposed to take something we were passionate about and turn it into a propaganda poster. Well me and two friends decided to turn this into our over all PBL project. We decided to go with the gay pride, rights, and more. Now you may be wondering, why would i be digging my grave? Here is the answer for you: I CAN'T STAND PEOPLE WHO BASH ON THE HOMOSEXUAL COMMUNITY!!! I have grown up with a lesbian mother and i am proud to be her daughter. What i hate is that a lot of the population on this earth, cant see the homosexual community as every day people. Instead they see them as this monster, mistake, even a disease that can be cured by camps! Those who bash on others for they're sexuality are so narrow minded its not even funny. Times have changed! Whats it to you with who's sleeping with who! Its no ones right but your very own. My anger towards people who cant accept the homosexual community is beyond furious. I have grown up being a well rounded person, accepting people for who they are, not for who they sleep with. I guess i just don't understand.
I cant understand the hate in this world that goes on everyday. The pain millions of people face everyday. Afraid to show who they really are. I learned just the other day about a young man, who came out that he was gay and two men decided to brutally beat him to death and tie him to a fence like a scarecrow. When someone had finally found him. It was to late, Matthew Shepard had already died. Tears of crimson blood ran from his eyes as he died. For 18 hours, he was tied there, waiting to die and wondering what he had done to deserve this. To die alone, beaten to death. When he was found, the biker that found him, at first mistook him as a scarecrow. His face had been so beaten in, and the blood that caked his face covered his skin. Upon a closer look, he found it to be young Matthew Shepard.
My project isn't about pushing my ideas onto people. No, its about understanding that even if your gay, lesbian, bi, transgender, ect, we're all people. We all live on this earth as one. We should all be treated equally, not based on how we live our lives. If we based it on that, than there are worse people out there that are far more worse than being gay.

A reflection of the past nine months

If you were to have asked me nine months ago, if i was going to be with the same guy. I would have said that i wasn't sure. But where ever this path leads us, i would follow. Whoever would have thought that we would have lasted almost nine months. I DID!!! I felt that when i first kissed him. There was something special in that kiss, something that promised great things. And now almost nine months later. I have seen all of it. And it will never get old. They say that opposites attract and i believe that. Its all true with sam and i. I am the dreamer type, where he is the down to earth kind of guy. I wont lie, lately i have been emotional so i show it more, where he doesn't show it as often. I really believe we are meant to be together. He is my structure when i cant stand alone. He is my love, my best friend, my boyfriend, my husband, my everything. The way that he looks at me with his gorgeous ever changing eyes. The way that when he tells me he loves me, comes in thousands of times louder than anyone elses. How his arms are always wide open for me, just waiting for me to return to them. The way that hes the only one that matters to me. He captured my heart that day, and he has never let go. And i dont want want him to let go. Because i can tell you this, if it hurts this bad for us to be only three miles apart. I would hate to see what my life would be like with out him in it. He has changed this girl for the better, and i hope that down the road one day, we can finally say "i do" in front of all of our family and friends. To show the world what our love can do. That no matter how many ups and downs we may have. Our ups, will always beat the downs. Because every up is filled with hundreds of good memories than one down will ever be. He is my northern star, he leads me through my dark times, and back to his arms. Which is where i belong. How i ever got this lucky, i dunno. But what i can tell you. I would never change it for the world. I have got this amazing guy right in front of me, and i'm not going to let go of him. I love you Samuel Thomas Johansen. You have made me the happiest and luckiest girl alive. You have filled my life with so much love and happiness. I love you with all of my heart and soul. You are the single most important person in my life. And i thank the lord every day for blessing me with you in my life. Happy early nine months baby! we have only three more to go before a year. we can do it!!
