ReplyDeleteIt's such a beautiful picture and I think says so much about welcoming a loved one home.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing this, it's a wonderful thing to see!
ReplyDeleteFinally they can do this out in the open. Every time I get depressed about the state of the world, I remind myself we are moving forward, one step at a time. A gay Marine, kissing his boyfriend for all the world to see is one more wonderful step. Thanks for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteThis showed up on my FB list, I was so happy!!
ReplyDeleteLove it!

ReplyDelete*sigh* This photo is so beautiful. I first saw it a few days ago on GR, it was posted as a photo prompt for the Love is Write contest and I just fell in love with it. I snatched it up today and am going to attempt to write something based on it (completely different though).
ReplyDeleteJerry thanks for the video & story link, it was wonderful to hear more of their story!
*le sigh* :-)
ReplyDeleteNice to see, very heartwarming, it's taking time, but the world will continue to move towards more acceptance and understanding of the people who habitate it. Thanks for posting the picture.
