I am not the author of this photo. But my beloved knows those two guys who were legally married on June this year. Their names are Peter and Pieter.
Here is what Peter has written and shared this week:
Yesterday was a dark day for me. The news that Proposition 8 passed was devastating. It was at that moment that I realized that it is not just a rights issue for me, I want you to accept who I am. I can't help that I am a gay man, nor do I want to. I have been in a loving relationship for five years with my husband Pieter. We are approaching our third wedding anniversary. We were legally married on June 17, 2008. Pieter and I both work in the community. We support many charities and attend their events. We come home from our days and cook dinner and watch TV. We are very similar to most heterosexual couples. It amazes me that there are people trying to take away the very thing that we are using to assimilate into a heterosexual culture.
Imagine for a minute what it would be like to come home and see advertisements on TV saying what a terrible person you are. That children need to be protected from you.
Imagine what it would be like to wake up and find that 1/2 of your state hates you.
Imagine what it would be like to walk out into the world every day using a fine tuned sonar to test who will accept you, who hates you, who will turn you away because of their faith, and who you you should trust as real friends.
This is my life every day. I go out into the world knowing that I have to assess with each person the degree to which I can be myself. It is not any easy road. I trusted that our world was slowly accepting us. Seeing that 52% of California feels differently was beyond frightening. My heart is deeply saddened.
My only regret is that I trusted Californians with my well being. I shouldn't have been so complacent, assuming that everything was going to be okay. I should have been paying closer attention. I should have been more proactive. Well, I am ready to fight this fight. There are over 18,000 gay and lesbian couples that were married in California this year. Why would you want to take that from us.
I ask you all to dig deep down and think of how that would feel to hear that you can't be with the one you love. I am asking you to accept me for who I am.
Writer Anne Lamott writes, "Hope begins in the dark, the stubborn hope that if you just show up and try to do the right thing, the dawn will come. You wait and watch and work: you don't give up."
With love, Peter
Fall seven times, stand up eight.

Trump & Erdogan were in Belgium for a NATO meeting.. and over 12000 Belgians took to the streets to protest their presidencies.
It’s objectively too late to restrain population and consumption growth so as to avert what ecologists of the 1970s called a “hard landing.”
It is the lie that human society can continue growing its population and consumption levels indefinitely on our finite planet, and never suffer consequences.
Perhaps Donald Trump succeeded because his promises spoke to what civilizations in decline tend to want to hear. It could be argued that the pluralistic, secular, cosmopolitan, tolerant, constitutional democratic nation state is a political arrangement appropriate for a growing economy buoyed by pervasive optimism. (On a scale much smaller than contemporary America, ancient Greece and Rome during their early expansionary periods provided examples of this kind of political-social arrangement). As societies contract, people turn fearful, angry, and pessimistic—and fear, anger, and pessimism fairly dripped from Trump’s inaugural address. In periods of decline, strongmen tend to arise promising to restore past glories and to defeat domestic and foreign enemies. Repressive kleptocracies are the rule rather than the exception.
'Tis a lesson you should heed:
Try, try, try again.
If at first you don't succeed,
Try, try, try again.

Personal typography project incorporating my photography and one inspirational quote.
I could write a novel telling all about all that I experienced, saw, and learned. This is just one of the many faces I met while in Uganda. This little girl and her sibling are such sweathearts, darlings.
Wonder over to my website to see more photos from my recent trip to Uganda here.
All the world is full of suffering, it is also full of overcoming. In case you were entertaining the thought of giving up...
When I reach the place of my dreams, I will thank my failures and tears, They, too, kept me going. - Dodinsky

25 Top landmarks in the world for 2018
Original photo credit: Gabriele Lässer
If it happens quickly or if it's easy, then anyone can do it. If anyone can do it then I personally wouldn't define it as "Great". My greatest accomplishments took years, people telling me it's stupid, failing miserably, and wanting to give up. The reason why I'm proud of it is because very very few people accomplished similar outcomes. Anything worth doing is going to be tough, because it's worth doing. #dontgiveup #quittersneverwin #greatthingstaketime #successquotes #success #millennial
