A sign?

Yesterday, March 22, 2015, in a historic vote, Ireland passed a referendum to legalize gay marriage and all lovers of freedom throughout the world rejoiced. This morning there was a rainbow in Dublin, a fitting symbol for such a wonderful event. This rainbow would, of course, be a ideal symbol for those opposed to the referendum to see it as a blessing from above, but they probably won't. It doesn't matter. Because all those who believe in love, equality, kindness, harmony and peace know, rainbow or not, that Ireland has given the world an incredible gift. This year St. Patrick's Day will have more meaning than ever as we pay tribute to a country that has made such a contribution to the future.
