50 Days until 50: Day 23

June 6, 2020

It’s time to talk

Remove the phrase I don’t see color
So we can truly see each other
And focus on what lies within and not be distracted by melanin
Our hearts beat
Our blood flows
We celebrate highs
And experience lows
More similar than different
Divided over pigment
Roots deeply planted in fear
How do we move away from here?
Understanding, respect and consideration is the only way to heal our nation
It’s time to have the conversation we’ve been avoiding for hundreds of years
It’s not going to be comfortable there will be anger, frustration and tears
But if we don’t come together nothing is going to get better
It’s time to talk

About lmeceo

My name is Lisa M Evans MA, CDP.  I am an author, blogger, introvert and vegan.  I earned a Masters degree in Psychology from Cleveland State University and a certification in Diversity Management. I created this blog to come out of my shell and share my perspective on a variety of topics. I want to use this blog as a sounding board, gathering place and learning opportunity. I plan on sharing a little bit of everything that interests me, natural hair, being vegan, and anything else that moves me. I have three titles that are available on Amazon,  I Know How to Lose Weight, So Why Haven't I,  a self-help book that was written as a way to work through my issues with weight and dig deeper than just diet and exercise, This is my brain on emotion, a collection of poems that I have written over the years to express my innermost thoughts and feelings, Rich Man's Song, a children's book that teaches a valuable lesson about love and money.
