Safe


Safe in our apartment in Cihangir. 

More safe tomorrow when home-home. 

Watching an innocent civilian riot from our window makes me ever so grateful for the freedoms we often take for granted in the States. The people of Turkey, and all across the world, deserve exactly the same.  


A glaring reminder of how lucky I am to be an American. Sending love and peace to all who experience and/or have have experienced such unrest and oppression on a regular basis. Your fight is worth fighting. 


PS BTW: Dear Illinois, what an epic fail. Get your shit together and pass gay marriage through the House when given a second chance this Fall. You know the importance of this matter. EVERYONE deserves the God given right to love and be loved and to acknowledge this freely!
