I chose a rose because it is a symbol of love and beauty, yet like me, it has its thorns. Many people strive for perfection but it is rarely achieved. The rose shows us that even beautiful things in nature are not perfect. Also, a rose can have several meanings depending on what color it is; like the rose I am very versatile. Roses are also my favorite flower, and I am named after my grandma Rose.
