Summary:
 This week I read a "This I Believe" essay about a girl named Ashley. She talked about how she believes that people should be able to be who they want to be with out being judged. She believes this because she is a girl that likes girls she is a lesbian but doesn't let societies thought of the way she lives effect her. She believes that society has no say in right and wrong.  I really like a part of her essay where she talks about how society always go to the bible when it comes to same-sex relationship's but if god can forgive one for murder, then god can forgive one for being in love with some one the same-sex as them.

React:
 when unread this essay I really agreed with her. I don't think someone should be told who they can and can't be with. Who they should and shouldn't be.  I have friends and family who are gay and it breaks my heart how someone can be embarrassed of who they because of what society is going to think. I know society has came a long way from years ago but society is still so harsh on people. when I see on TV how this state or that state is passing same-sex marriage I think to my self why is this even a law. Who is the state to tell someone who they can and can't marry. Its crazy how  America has so many religions and races but yet certain states wont let tow people of the Sam-sex people get married. Society should have no say on how someone should be, who they should love, how they should dress or anything else. People should be who they want to be without being afraid of what society has to say or think about it.
