Love Wins

As I rambled on to let my cynicism and frustration out in the Dirt, Drama, and Details, the beautiful experience we shared today on the streets of Orlando, Florida came shining through and lifted my spirits and warmed my heart and gave me hope for humanity. What we did was sing Amazing Grace when the hate group started screaming hate. They tried every trick in the book and only got one guy to yell out at them when they stepped on the flag but he responded so well to the love all around him that he was cheered. The Hate Church had a permit to be there for 90 minutes and they left after an hour, defeated. The Angels followed them as they walked to their cars and the crowd let our a huge cheer. Hate lost. Love won. Many returned for the Vigil in the park in the evening. A sixty foot rainbow banner was carried around Lake Eola as another beautiful gathering of people supporting each other through these challenging days. Orlando really is coming together beautifully.

#OrlandoStrong #OrlandoUnited #OneOrlando #LoveIsLove #LoveWins

These were more than words today.
