This is a lesson that each living being on earth is capable of learning, no matter what
The day will come when the human heart is touched by the stirrings of love. It can happen to anyone.

Young or old, cynical or wise. Every human being can love. When we love, we learn to cherish the one that we love.

God has declared that we are all born free. We have certain inalienable rights for as long as we love.

We have the rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Those rights are for each of us.

Who are we to tell each other what love should be? Who is worthy of that love?

A parent is made to teach a child how to love. Why would that parent ever restrict a young heart?

"That man is dirt poor," or, "That woman has three children from other men," might be in some ways true.

Who alone but God can truly judge the character of each person on this planet? We are not perfect.

People can fall. People can fail. God is there to lift us and set us on our feet. He is there to love us.

Love is God's greatest gift to all of us. Maybe that poor man, or that busy mother, still needs to feel that love.

We cannot keep love as exclusive, for certain sorts of people. Even the condemned of earth need that love.

To love, and to cherish, are the rights and responsibilities as given to us by our eternal, and ever loving heavenly father.

I might not be perfect, and neither is the man that I love, but the God who made us will guide us.

Because God chooses to love us, now we can love each other. Let happiness lift it's voice and sing for ever.
