JMG HomoQuotable - Andrew Sullivan
"I never believed this would happen in my lifetime when I wrote my first several TNR essays and then my book, Virtually Normal, and then the anthology and the hundreds and hundreds of talks and lectures and talk-shows and call-ins and blog-posts and articles in the 1990s and 2000s. I thought the book, at least, would be something I would have to leave behind me – secure in the knowledge that its arguments were, in fact, logically irrefutable, and would endure past my own death, at least somewhere. I never for a millisecond thought I would live to be married myself. Or that it would be possible for everyone, everyone in America. But it has come to pass. All of it. In one fell, final swoop. Know hope." - Andrew Sullivan, returning to his blog to spike the ball.

Today's Daily Dharma: Skillful Speech
Skillful Speech
Few
things can improve the nature of our relationships as much as the
development of skillful speech. Silence offers us, and those around us,
the spaciousness we need to speak more skillfully. When we speak with
greater skill, our true self?our compassionate, loving self?emerges with
gentle ease.
