My object is a culmination of two ring-like objects. The first is smaller and is worn around my waist. It is a nice dark pink. I choose dark pink because it is one of my favorite colors. This first ring represents myself; it represents my actions and my beliefs, the things I know and the things I say. The second ring represents my students it is much larger than myself, it glows brightly and surrounds me. The ring is a reflection of myself and yet it could stand on its own it does not need me to wear it. They are both rings because similarities, my students and I will share innate things like where we live, where we go to school, the fact that we are living, thinking and breathing. They however differ in size and color because of the differences we will have, like things we think and life choices we make.

The symbolic meaning of the rings is beautiful, as is the image in showing your expanded vista enlarged by your students who surround you rather than the other way around.
