In this moment in time where heroes are hard to find, Sean Penn rises like the star that he is. For whatever brief moment, everyone that listened heard the voices of many including me, that have not been heard yet, “WE HAVE TO HAVE EQUAL RIGHTS FOR EVERYONE!”

Thank you Sean Penn for not being afraid to speak for others and to stand up for your fellow brother. I can honestly say that your Oscar acceptance brought me tears of joy because it meant to me that there is hope behind all the injustices created against the GBLT community. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

I encourage all artist of any level to let their creativity promote equal rights for everyone (LOVE) and to be like Sean Penn, a voice for those not heard.

Have you seen Milk?

WOW…what a film! If you have not gone to watch this movie, I strongly recommend you do! This movie is based on the real life story, it was created using recordings from a man named Harvey Milk, and he narrates his life in the gay community, going from being an everyday normal person, to being one of the most well known gay activists and politics.
Harvey recruited everyone and encouraged gays to come out of the closet “come out come out! Wherever you are…” and encouraged every gay to come out to their families, co-workers, and everywhere! So everyone would at least know someone who was gay. This has to be one of my favorite movies; it’s very inspirational and powerful! After watching this movie, I felt the urge to get out there and be loud, and fight for our rights! If they did it when it was such a hard and controversial time, and many gave their life for the cause, it’s not fair to keep quiet and let all their effort be in vein, today society is more accepting, but still, there is people out there who are in the closet…In my opinion this movie would inspire anyone to come out of the closet and fight for equal rights at any given opportunity!

I would love to hear what everyone else thought of the movie.

In this journey called the human life where we are given a limited amount of time for self-exploration and self-realization sometime unanswered questions are placed in your path.

Things I do not understand….

How can some people limit their love to only a certain type of people, weather it be sex religion, sexual orientation, age, or race?

In what form or perfect person do you believe love should reside? Isn’t love formless?
We know love exists because we can feel it. Are we not expressions of love?

Then I found this beautiful video that summed all my questions in one….

Love is fearless and courageous it withstands all obstacles and transcends time, space, the material world, and the non-material world believes, traditions, and doctrines.

Spread the love. Human right for all! Start to in vision this world in your prayers, meditations, mantras, in your time alone of contemplation until this dream comes true.
