The day Dolly died
informational · throughout
we finally realized there is something we can all agree on. From the homes of mechanics and gardeners, drag queens and pastors, athletes and actors. From the city to the country to the mountains and the plains, tears flowed like we had lost family. In a time where no one seems to see eye to eye, she made billionaires and beggars alike drop to their knees. There is something almost divine about her. She holds the hearts of an entire nation and does so with gentle hands. I am not sure there’s ever been, or will ever be, a person more invariably loved in human history. Dolly didn’t see love as something earned, but given universally. She made you believe that you deserved it, and deserved it for free. She showed us that it is in fact possible to love thy neighbor without hate or exception. Like the sun she did not choose who to shine upon, but shone for all until every last rhinestone fell off. And may her voice be heard in chorus pouring out the doors of every dive bar, every gay club, every stage, and every street corner. From every gentle mother’s hum, to every whistle on the walk home, to every outstretched hand and smile you share, she lives forever. Forever in our love.
