Personal Words

The lyrics I chose for this project was the one that Ms. Cook had in her out folder because I didn't know what lyric, song, or poem would go with me.

" Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually who are we not to be? You are a child of God. "

I chose these lyrics because I didn't know what lyrics to choose that would go with me so I read the one that Ms. Cook had in her out folder as extra. I liked it so I used it for my personal words. It means to me because it has inspirational words. I think of this as positive thinking about what I say I'm afraid of. The thought of me being afraid of something is not what I should be afraid of; it is the total opposite. It was actually a good lyric because it sort of goes with me. It made me realize that we shouldn't be afraid of little things because that is what will hold us back.

Social Issue: "Beautiful Pain"

In my picture I put a white rose with drops of blood and light hitting the rose as the background. I also included two small size pictures, one of hammer nails on the bottom left corner and another picture of a hand with pretty designed finger nails on the top right corner. My words are overlayed on top of the rose to make it the emphasis. I also put them in big, red letters so it could stand out.

The issue I decide to do was beauty is pain. The statement means that there are things that we girls like to do to look gorgeous and some of those things can cause pain. My pictures are hammer nails and finger nails. I put the hammer nails because they represent the pain that we go through when we fix ourselves to look pretty. The finger nails picture I put it because it hurts sometimes to get our nails done, well mostly the first time. There are many more things we do that makes us look beautiful but at the same time it causes us pain. For example, when we get our hair done at a salon or when we pluck out our eyebrows and even when we wear high heels, etc. All this makes us look beautiful but it also hurts us and puts us through pain.
