Marriage Stories Project

Yesterday Pam Brown (policy director for Marriage Equality USA) and I exchanged several emails about the new Marriage Stories site (www.marriagestories.org). I posted a story on the site for Pam and a quote in the article touched me (which is very hard to do these days):

If we can show how contagious love is, we can gain support from communities that traditionally have opposed same sex marriage.

I think that says it all! I hope others will share their stories from across the nation. If you're married, have a civil union, or are in a long-term relationship and cannot get married because of the laws of the state you live in...... share your story with us!

What does the freedom to marry the person you love mean to you? How does your ability or inability to marry impact your life?
