A Vision
I vision a day when people are brought together with hope, dreams, love, and fulfillment no matter their orientation, gender, ethnicity, faith, education, challenges, abilities, and social status. I dream of a time when people can look at each other because of who they are, not what they are. I dream of a day when there can be a woman president, a secular president, and most definitely a LGBT or Hispanic president- someone that further breaks the norms that Obama broke for the last two terms. I dream of a place where people can continue to be on an even field despite theological differences and can talk civilly about their churches' attitudes and about what they want to achieve with their faith without being totally judgmental (that goes for me too). I dream of an age where people don't get stereotyped by what they are in to and listen to but rather what they decide to do with their lives whether good or bad strangers can see their mistakes and triumphs in what they are doing to continually change and grow. I dream of a place where people can no longer speak for those without a voice because everyone will have one. I am hoping to picture myself sitting next to a like-minded activist 40 years from now and have people compare this activism to the civil rights movement because we will continue to see positive social change for LGBT people and people who are queer, questioning, intersex, inquiring, allies, and asexual. I dream of a world where people who fit outside of the gender norm whether androgynous-gender, bi-gender, transgender, agender, or otherwise don't have to come out as a big spectacle and LGBT people don't either. I dream of a world where people can come out in team sports and not be ostracized for their orientation. But I know that this world is a long way off and it makes me sad. I know that this probably will not be accomplished in my lifetime even if I live to be 101 years old. So I'm hoping that the future generations can continue to strive towards happiness, love, life, and the hope and dreams for all. Because I feel like when I'm in heaven at the end of the day and this happens even if it's 777 years from now or way sooner I can so "well done world."
