A lot of love went into editing this piece together so I hope it shows up in the work. I mean no harm if I left anyone or anything too political out.

Thank you very much for your comment, much appreciated.

I stripped back a lot of the politics of this event and tried to give it a more human touch.

Unfortunately I won't be going to the rally this Saturday as I am overseas and will only just be head home then.

Thank you for your kind words. It made my day! xo

Really well done. I love the concept you are going for here.

You cant believe how much this made my day better. Its such a heartwarming video, full of love and kindness. Yes, everyone should have rights to marry. We are all humans after all, there is no superior human being from another. If someone wishes to take it one step further there shouldn't be a barrier put in front of them just cause something written in stone says so, things change. Love is more powerful than that and i hope we are all viewed as equals in the future. I really do.
