Everything you just couldn't see

I love you, the three most powerful words. They mean the same no matter the language. Then does it really matter whether it is said from a man to a woman or a woman to a woman or a man to a man. Is there a set way that person must love another. There are two females shown, one identifies a straight and one identifies as bisexual. Is there a difference in the way that they love someone.

Growing up different is hard enough, growing up being something that is socially unacceptable is heart breaking. It’s now common to hear of someone being bisexual or even bicurious. Yet in the 1990 and up until recent years, it was seen as outrageous. Coming out in those times was difficult and many times people were often rejected by their families. Should it be something to be judges on, something that should be put on a pedestal and looked at.

The centre piece is a necklace portraying the word love. The strongest and most frightening word for most people. It the same rush, cloud nine, butterflies in the stomach feeling for everyone. Why the rejection and pain that some face for a lifestyle that is chosen for them. It shows the tie that makes us all the same, the way that we love, and want love in our lives.

You can't tell the difference looking at two people. Why should you pass judgment on others when they could thing the same of you.
