Friends asked if they could play music for the party.
We all couldn't stop hugging them...
and hugging them...
...and hugging them...
It was a celebration of what America was and could be.
For where else, Rev. Sparks asked us, could a Baptist preacher marry two Jewish men in a bar on the Lower East Side of New York. And after they cut the cake....
...all that remained at the end of the night was love, honored by friends and family and now, finally, protected by the laws of the land. At least in New York State.

Pure happiness....long may they run.
How can we not celebrate people's love for one another?
We spend so much time in the news analyzing why people hate one another (race vs. race, class vs. class, nation vs. nation), it's a blessing to have love in the news.....
