So, I just saw this status on some guy’s profile that
said, “If you have an equal sign avatar, you’re a douche.” Really? Does he
really want to go there? In 1215 with the Magna
Carta, we have our first documentation of civil rights. Here we are, 800
years and many renditions later, and the LGBT community still does not have the same rights as so many
humans across the world. This is not a lesbian/gay/bisexual/transgender
issue. GET OVER IT!! It is a HUMAN RIGHTS issue. It does not concern you
personally. It is not going to harm you in any way. It does not take away any
of your rights. I saw a poster once and I loved it. On the top part were people
protesting same-sex marriage. On the bottom half were people protesting blacks
and whites going to schools together – they wanted segregation to stay. It
said, “50 years from now, do you want your face on this newspaper page?” Now we
look back at all the ignorant asses who were so awful throughout US history
towards blacks and Native Americans, YET is that not what Americans (in
general) are doing EXACTLY TODAY to the LGBT community? WHY? Because they fear
the unknown. "Oh my goodness – they are going to turn our kids, our grandkids,
our very beings gay!!!! Run for the hills!!!" WTF? It is not a disease! It is
not a choice, despite what many ignorant people may think. Who would
ever CHOOSE to be laughed at, ostracized from society – from their families
even, and treated like 3rd rate citizens?
Not sure what the equal sign means?
March 26, 2013 ABC’s
Dan Milano reports – “They’re popping up on Facebook news feeds around the
nation, but without much explanation. Just what are those red equal-sign
Facebook profile pictures all about? Look no further than the Human Rights
Campaign [HRC], an organization in support of gay marriage that is running a
particularly successful social media initiative as the Supreme Court discusses
the issue over the next two days. In a Facebook post today, the HRC asked
gay marriage supporters to “paint the town red,”
wearing red in their wardrobe as well on their Facebook pages, changing profile
photos over to the HRC “=” logo. The idea has even caught the eyes of Congress,
with 13 members showcasing the symbol, according to Ryan Beckwith.”
Now – quit being a bigoted jerk (to the one who had that on his profile) and for others, I hope you will think
hard about your stance on the issue.
I am Nothing
By Robyn –
I am nothing: 1. No thing; not anything; naught 2. Emptiness 3. Something that is nonexistent 4. Nonexistence; nothingness 5. Something or someone of no importance or significance
Shutout –no longer a part of sister’s life - no longer a part of nieces’ and nephew’s life
Insignificant – told by sister life is not significant enough to bother with - not to let her know what is going on in life - am not
Obliteration –had true love – 7 months after break-up still love him –he obliterated the love
Zero - work has determined zero contact with coworkers and students
Extinction – special education students will no longer remember even existed in their lives
Void – feel huge voids in life for others- they do not feel voids in theirs’ - am really a void? Or just a void in cosmic space?
Crumb–things swept away and thrown in the garbage - many in life have done just that– swept away and thrown in the garbage – forgetting even exist
Not Anything –not anything past special people want back in their lives - no matter how bad long for it
What do I long for?
I long to be a something –
I long to be important in my family’s lives - every one of them
I long to make a difference in my students' lives
I long to love and be loved
I long to be a somebody -
But I am nothing
Humans – As God Intended? By "Bobbie Vetriano"–
Hating life
Not happy with men in general
Sick and tired of men being cruel to women, esp. those they supposedly love
Sick of men treating me like a piece of meat or something to use and discard
Not sure what the hell is wrong with me
Why no one wants to take the time to get to know me
Wondering if I will ever be happy or if I am destined to be miserable for the rest of my life
Considering becoming a hermit
Seriously
Hate leaving my apartment and seeing all the hate and nastiness in the world
Men are not alone with this cruelty
Women are the same; it’s just not at me
Well, actually some are, just not relationship wise
Women are catty as hell
Not sure why people just can’t be nice to each other
Do what they promise
Say what they mean and mean what they say
Just be what God had intended
Humans who take care of one another
After all, that is why He created Eve
To be a companion to Adam
For them to help take care of each other
That is what He intended
Not to be nasty or hateful to each other
Not hurt each other
Jesus teaches us to love one another
Don’t see that going on in the world
See little of that actually
The world saddens me
Yes, He gave us free will
We are allowed to do and be how we want
Am not a perfect human by any stretch of the imagination
Try my hardest to be kind to every one
Try to follow the commandments
Try to follow the ways Jesus taught us
Do not judge others for the decisions or their beliefs
But am saddened by them
Am hurt by those that effect myself, my family, or my friends
But mainly, just want to hide from it all
