FINALLY

Carlos McKnight of Washington waves a flag in support of same-sex marriage outside the U.S. Supreme Court on Friday, June 26. <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2015/06/26/politics/supreme-court-same-sex-marriage-ruling/index.html">The Supreme Court ruled 5-4</a> Friday that states cannot ban same-sex marriage, handing gay rights advocates their biggest victory yet. See photos from states that approved same-sex marriage before the nationwide ruling:I am proud to announce to those of you who don't know, gay marriage is now legal in all 50 states. This is so wonderful, I woke up to this on my phone and was overwhelmed with joy. I am a member of the LGBT community being bisexual and all. You can see why I am so happy for everyone in the community. It's so hard to wrap my head around, not that it's now legal, but the fact that it took so long. Marriage is a simple human right, at least in my opinion.
I'm not sure what to say here, all I know is that I am so happy. I hope to see my friends from high school who are gay, go through life and find that special someone. They wont have to worry about not being able to be married. I hope to one day get an invitation to one of these weddings. Today is definitely going in the history books.
One day homophobia will be just a distant memory. At least, I hope so.
