I COME FROM

I come From a Woman Named Josette M. Lockett
The lady that gave Birth to me February 7th 1995 on a Tuesday

I come From a Family of two siblings
One brother and one sister

I come From a Single Mother
My birth father left before my first Birthday

I come From MANHATTAN
The neighborhood HARLEM, Westside Territory

I come From the Ghetto
Where people fight, stab, steal from, shoot at each other everyday

I come From a Unwealthy family
Where scraping coins together to survive is a must

I come From saying I hate school everyday
And never doing work when suppose to

But now I come From being in the same grade three years in a row
To catching back up and Graduating One year after I'm suppose to

I come From having siblings not able to get a job because of there School education
To doing maintenance work and helping mom pay the bills.

I COME FROM NOTHING TO SOON BEING SUCCESFUL

Themes

A theme of my story is evil vs good, it's based off of James And The Giant Peach. It tells people when things are down you can always make them better; it takes time but it's all worth it. Inside the story James had a terrible childhood, he lost both of his parents at the age of four in a tragic accident. He then went to stay with his aunts who both treated him with no respect. Good came around and he made friends who he took on an adventure with traveling across the Atlantic Ocean. There met with many obstacles which they will have to overcome.
