There are so many things that could be said about the Women's March in Los Angeles. But mostly, all I can say is that it was truly beautiful and inspiring. While the air hung heavy with broken hearts and sad souls, it also radiated pride, strength, and love. For such an important cause, the positive energy was truly overwhelming. The protestors turned hate into love and darkness into celebration. They celebrated coming together for something so important and the fact that we have the rights in this country to fight for our future and the future of generations yet to come.

Women marched with their babies on their hips, children marched for a future that radiates uncertainty, teens marched with the passion of young people, learning that their voice matters.
Men marched because morals matter and they understand that all deserve to be equal. People marched for their love and the love shared between others because the law should never define love.

Humans marched to save the earth and to keep it healthy and safe so that we as a people can always breathe easily. People of all colors marched so the color of anyone's skin to never define them or their dreams. Many marched in hopes that refuges are never turned away and that those with a life here are not forced to leave it behind because of paperwork. LGBTQ marched for hate to be obliterated and for their hearts and families never to be broken because of sexuality. People also marched for affordable healthcare and prescription costs, death should never be the only option simply because of a lack of cash.

For those calling the protests anything but good, just remember there were zero arrests involved because those marching truly had a reason to march and peace was on the forefront of the minds of everyone there. It was a march against not one man, but a whole mindset that will do nothing but hurt and repress the American people.

Let us love, support, and cherish each other because together we are mighty. It's time to hear the citizens of America and the world ROAR!
