The UCF event to memorialize those GLBT youth who have taken their own lives in the past few weeks was beautiful in its simplicity. The University president and one of the VPs were present as well. Clergy were present, that I knew of, from Oasis Ministry, Joy MCC, and of course Holy Angels. Speakers urged the young men and women gathered there to never loose their voices because of being bullied, to fight on for what is right, and to respect all even when we are disrespected. The representative of UCF spoke eloquently. She urged all to employ the Golden Rule in our daily lives.
