Turn, turn, turn
A friend of mine was with her young daughter in the grocery store this week, when they passed the People magazine at the checkout with photos of Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi’s wedding.
“What if I decided that I wanted to marry another girl?” my friend’s daughter said with that amazing directness children have.
“Well, if you were in love, and wanted to get married and spend the rest of your life with someone, that would be wonderful, whether it was a girl or a boy,” said my friend.
It’s with those sorts of off-the-cuff, informal, seemingly insignificant conversations that everything changes. Those tiny moments move the world.
