Love is a beautiful thing. It's the topic of poets, novels and songs. It's what makes the world go round. Everyone wants to be loved, and falling in love is amazing. Love is at the crux of all good things, and it's in our DNA to want to love and be loved by others.
So why, then, is being gay a bad thing? Why does love change from good to evil when instead of being between a boy and girl, it's between two boys or two girls? Love is love, no matter who it's from or who it's directed to. So I've never understood all the hate towards gay and lesbian couples. They're in love, and that's a beautiful thing. They just fell love someone who happens to be the same gender as them, and I don't see what's so bad about that.
So when I heard that Barack Obama supports gay marriage, I got excited. No, he mightn't be approving gay marriage across America; he's left that for states to decide. That really would be an amazing thing. But the fact that a politician as influential as the US president has said that he thinks gay marriage is okay is something to be excited about. Because love is love, and everyone should have the right to be with and marry who they choose.
