Part 3 - The TRUTH Shall Set You Free! The Meaning Behind 'Does Anyone Else See The Big Ass Elephant In The Room?'
(Read Part 1 - Real People Don't Hide Behind Masks! The Meaning Behind 'It May Not Be Pretty But It's Mine!')

As I indicated in the previous reads, 'Part 1- Real People Don't Hide Behind Masks! The Meaning Behind 'It May Not Be Pretty But It's Mine!'' - a blog about the 'Me' on the inside; 'Part 2 - Life Without The Rose Colored Glasses! The Meaning Behind 'GingerSnaps And VODKA'' - a blog about the experiences of life and the ups and downs of our day's and night's; 'Does Anyone Else See The Big Ass Elephant In The Room?' is a blog designed to shine the light to those 'issues' everyone knows exist but try to ignore because they don't want to talk about it.
Again, none of my blogs are ethnic, gender, or lifestyle specific. I will shine the light on issues that may may concern some, and issues that may concern us all. The importance is that a dialog be started because an issue that effects some, is an issue that effects all.
We, as a race of people, are wanting, in fact, expecting change. A progression from our historical past. But, we are all looking to the person beside us to make that change happen! We are all blaming the person behind us for the inadequacies.
We all need to take a long, hard, honest look at ourselves. OUR skeletons in the closet. Those issues WE are trying to avoid. The problems WE don't want to admit. And the history WE don't want to acknowledge, or remember.
We as a people must live, breathe , and exist in this world together. That is a fact that will not change. So, we may as well uncover our scars so that we may begin to heal. We will never be able to break down the cement wall we keep running into, unless we acknowledge, discuss, and work through the very issues that erected the cement wall in the first place.
We will never be able to move forward, if we continue to be chained to our past!
We can not expect others to help us, if we continue to ignore the cries for help of others!
We need to begin to heal our families.
We need to begin to heal our communities.
We need to begin to heal ourselves.
Stop ignoring the big ass elephant in the room and start talking to one another.
