there just... aren't any words

[elekanahmen]

There are no words right now... there are no words right now because I just watched a straight man from a straight family in a straight marriage on national television grow near tears in his plea to the country to accept gay marriage. I just watched a man so passionate about the fact that love is love and nothing more or less than the purest of feeling... despite it having no personal bearing on him... that he not only had the tears in his voice but caused me to shed the tears he held at bay. This is quite possibly the most beautiful and moving piece that I've seen on prop 8 in the days following the election and I want you ALL to watch it, please, and be as moved as I am.
