Project 2

LaTisha Jones

This booklet is about my life. And it portrays my family and good friends who have played a major role in shaping the different stages of whom I have become.

I chose a cream cover for my book because my personality is very calm and serene by nature. The texture symbolizes the rough times I had to endure and the red ribbon represents my passion for life and the people who I love.

Chapter one covers my family. It all began with my mother and how she raised my siblings and me as a single parent. Watching my mother gave me the determination to pursue my goals in life. It is from her that I draw strength. The photo of my sisters represents our true friendship and our unchanging love. The last few photos symbolize the powerful men and foundation which influenced my spiritual growth in life. And finally, my father—while absent during the most critical time of my development, I love him and he is proud of who I have become. And if it weren’t for both my parents I would not be here.    

Chapter two speaks about my tough times in life and the people who inspired me to make it through. If it were not for God putting these individuals in my life, my life may have taken another direction. These were the growing years that shaped my life and made me who I am. I owe everything I have accomplished to the love of God.

The final chapter is about how I fell in love.  When I first met him I knew I would love him. The first picture is shaded from a rich orange to red, which characterizes how our friendship grew into love and formed an everlasting bond. The proposal consummated our friendship and moved our love to the next level. And finally, he guards and protects this love and I feel safe with him.
