Stunned but optimistic

I know legislators are going to try to stop and nullify the gay marriages going on right now, but I'm hoping that it's a case of the "cat is out of the bag" and the momentum will just be too strong.

I was reading brighn's journal, and from the link about flowers for the couples standing in line for marriage licenses, I found a link to a photo album of the last week's worth of same-sex marriages. I found it to be a stunning piece of photojournalism-- I had tears dripping down my face after only getting half-way through the photos. The joy on these people's faces looks just like the joy on my face and that of dionysus1999 in our wedding photos.
