I promised myself that I would not speak of anything political in my livejournal. So here I am on Moonlit Jazz with just one message on this Eve of Election Day.

My fellow Californians, please…

VOTE NO ON PROP. 8

I’ve tried to see both sides. I like to think that I’m an open minded person when it comes to different issues. I endeavor to educate myself and base my decisions on facts, devoid of emotion, with a logical mind.

But this particular proposition touches me in a most personal way. One of my wonderful cousins finally got to marry his longtime partner this past summer. He’s happy, he’s in love, and now he’s married. I’m happy for him because I love him and he’s my family. He wanted to make that commitment and our wonderful state finally allowed him that dignity and right.

I’ve made my choice and I’ve cast my vote. What does that mean?

I’ve decided that marriage is a commitment between two people. And it does not matter to me if those two people are men or women, black or white, Chinese or Filipino, etc. Who am I to deny two people the opportunity to take that step and get married? Why am I allowed to marry and they are not? How can you judge someone by who they love? How can you say they aren’t allowed the right to choose their partner and make that partnership legal?

Who am I to decide something like that?

Who are you?

I have no powers of persuasion in this. I only need to say this aloud. I do not want to hear the argument against this because I’ve heard it. I have. And no one can change my mind.

Just remember, we are more than what anyone says we are. We have the ability to adapt, to change, to evolve. Most of all, we have the ability to love. And I can only pray that when people cast their vote tomorrow, they let love into their hearts and make the right decision.

VOTE NO ON PROP. 8
