What is love?

Love. It's really a word and feeling that most may not fully understand. The idea of love can be, to some people, be like the idea of God. Everyone sees love in a different perspective. For some reason, now the idea of true love can be viewed as a broken dream, and lost hopes. No one has stopped to think about what it really is or means. Love has no boundaries and does not judge. The controversy that the right thing to do is to be in a "normal" relationship, it being a heterosexual relationship. The idea of a same sex relationship has always been a controversial subject, because that's how people have treated it. 

Who ever made it the norm to be in a man/woman relationship? I believe that people should have the right to have their own preferences, as love is blind and has no limits. It is only "weird" to be in a same sex relationship because people have been thought to believe that it is not the right way, and as history shows, human nature does not like things out of the ordinary. The question I have is real simple, and as simple as it is, it needs to be thought of, so people can see things from a different perspective. My question is: Why can't people who have full rights put themselves in the shoes of those being oppressed from being happy, and see that it is not right to have certain people being kept from what they love? 

What if the same sex relationships were considered normal, and an opposite sex relationship was out of the norm? Wouldn't it be either way the same? People can't really see the fact that no matter what anyone's preferences are, they can't be changed, as it is who they are. The society we live in may start to be going in a more "accepting" way, but towards the wrong reasons. Everyone is becoming less and less educated, making it easier for history to repeat instead of changing. They want to be "free", but why are others still being hated? We are becoming more and more of standbys and sometimes many add on to the troubles of those screaming for help.

We are all humans, and no one should deserve to be oppressed from the things they love. Isn't that part of the fact of why we are now diverse? Well, then how come the diversity stop being limited by prejudice and hate?
