Breaking: Supreme Court rules in favor of gay marriage

-

Today, history has been made, and it is a beautiful history.

In a 5-4 ruling, the court has determined that every American has the right to marry the person they love, regardless of gender.

The CEO of GLAAD had this to say about the historic ruling:
“Today, love prevailed and our nation became a more perfect union by affirming that all people are indeed created equal and justice belongs to everyone. With this decision, loving and committed same-sex couples can finally rest knowing their families are protected and their dignity is no longer up for public debate. But as we celebrate this watershed victory for fairness, we are reminded that marriage equality is a benchmark, not a finish line, and our work to bridge the gap to full acceptance for LGBT people continues.”

My Two Cents:

Those that know me know that I am an avid supporter of the GLBT community. I literally almost started crying tears of joy when I saw the news break about this decision. I had been following this story for quite a while and I have been hoping and praying that the Supreme Court would rule in favor of gay marriage.

Now, across this great country of ours, everyone has the right to be married. I know that many conservatives will be quite upset by this ruling, but I have one thing to say to them:
Love is stronger than your hate. Take off your blinders and allow love to take over. Once you do that, you will truly be free.

Join me in celebrating marriage equality!
Thank you Supreme Court for allowing love into the constitution. On behalf of the GLBT community, I thank you!

The tiny home movement has been sweeping the country for the past several years. People yearn for the simplicity of living in a tiny home, and with the way the economy is, it is no wonder the movement has grown so immensely. When it comes to tiny homes, you have the mobile tiny homes, where you can take your home anywhere you want to go. You have Yurts, which are incredible tiny homes to put down your roots in. One type of tiny home that is growing in popularity is a Bodega home. The Bodega is a very nice tiny home. The thing that makes the Bodega different than other tiny homes is that it isn't mobile. So if you plan on living in a Bodega home, make sure you have land to build it on. Your Bodega may cost you anywhere from $15,000 to $25,000 to build. On some Bodega homes, you are able to expand the space for an extra bedroom or home office. Bodega homes can be as small as 65sq feet, and as large as 800sq feet.
