Melissa and I watched a PBS special tonight on gay marriage. And afterwards, we had a wonderful conversation about homosexuality and marriage and love and family. Our conversation wasn't about "solutions" or figuring out the "answer". It was a little reflection on how our thinking had changed. How could it be wrong to love someone? Not a drunken one-night stand or an abusive co-dependent relationship, but meaningful and intentional love? Is the issue really that easy? -or- do we dig through our bibles? -or- do we talk about genetics? -or- do we talk about legislation? -or- do we relive the same argument a thousand times? 'Cause let's face it. You've talked about this subject before. And there's a reason why I don't have a "comments" section on my blog.
So just now, for some odd and unexplainable reason, I had Hedwig & the Angry Inch running through my head. I went to iTunes and downloaded a few of the songs. Honestly? Love the music. I'm so-so on the film.
Running head on to things that knock me down over again you picked me off the ground when I wasn't strong enough to fight any more
but in your arms tonight
hold me close and tight
in your arms tonight
in your arms tonight
in your arms tonight
oh my love
