SPREAD LOVE

February: the month of love. People are found everywhere celebrating their love. With all the freedom they celebrate, party hard but only the people who are " straight ". What about the lesbians? Bisexuals? Transgenders? Gays? Confined to restricted borders celebrate in their own little world. They are never allowed to fly open. What about their love? A love of two straight people is beautiful but love of two lesbians, bisexuals, gays is disgusting? Opinions, tastes, like-dislikes differ. Differ from others and has to be supported. They are human too. What ' s the difference between the " straight " and not so straight? Both can breathe, eat, drink, sleep, both can make LOVE. PEOPLE ARE SNATCHING AWAY MOST BEAUTIFUL THING ' LOVE ' FROM THEM. The criticisms, the discrimination is shutting their beautiful dreams. THEY ARE HUMAN TOO. Let them dream, let them FLY, let them LIVE, let them LOVE. Let them savour the most lovely feeling of being in love. Let them CELEBRATE their love. STOP THE CRITICISM, STOP THE DISCRIMINATION. STOP BEING THE OBNOXIOUS SOCIETY, START BEING THE SUPPORTING SOCIETY. So this year let us erase the separation line... Because they are human too.
