And you couldn’t have that special day the way your friends do – you know, wear the ring on your finger and have it mean the same thing as everybody else. Just put yourself in that person’s shoes. It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

Entire Houston Area High School Lip Dubs to "Wavin' Flag" by K'naan

If you want something to make you smile, something to make you proud we live in this great country, or something just to make your day.  WATCH. THIS. VIDEO.
 
With all the craziness in the world, it's amazing how a video with over 1,800 High School students can make your day feel so much better.  Maybe it's because we were all high school students once, or maybe it's because we had or have teenagers who are in school, I don't know.  Maybe it's a combination of all those things.  Regardless, the entire student body of Stratford High School in Houston, Texas, created this video of them lip dubbing to K'naan's song, "Wavin' Flag" and it was absolutely fantastic! Absolutely, absolutely wonderful!

That was great. I think if they picked a little more familiar song then it might have been easier for everyone to lip sing to, but it still turned out great in the end. I'm real proud of the school for coming together to get this done.
