“FROM SHANIQUA ANDERSON FRESH TO THIS LIFE, A BRIGHT-EYEDGIRL, FILLED WITH LOVE AND LIGHT. ROCKING SUNDAY DRESSES, BIBLE IN HAND, LIL’MISSIONARY, WALKING IN GOD’S PLAN.

THEN CAME QUAQUA, LOST IN THE NIGHT, SEARCHING FOR LOVE,CAUGHT UP IN FIGHTS. THE HOOD KNEW MY NAME, BUT SO DID MY PAIN, TRYING TOSURVIVE IN WORLD FULL OF RAIN.

THEN SHANIQUA ALEXANDER, A SHIFT IN MY NAME STILL FINDING MYFOOTING STILL PLAYING THE GAME. LESSONS AND LOSSES, HEARTBREAK AND FIRE BUT GODKEPT WHISPERING,, “BABY, GO HIGHER.”

THEN LOVE FOUND ME, REAL AND TRUE, SHANIQUA JONES, A WOMANRENEWED. A WIFE, A MOTHER, A HEALER, A GUDE, WITH BATTLE SCARS WORN, BUT NEVERMY PRIDE.

NOW DR. JONES, THE ADVOCATE STRONG, FIGHTING FOR JUSTICE,RIGHTING THE WRONGS. PHILANTHROPIST, LEADER, VOICE FOR THE WEAK, A WARRIOR FORHEALING, RESTORING THE MEEK.

EACH NAME, A CHAPTER, A PART OF MY SONG, PROOF THAT THEJOURNEY CAN MAKE YOU STRONG. FROM LOST TO FOUND, FROM BROKEN TO WHOLE, ATESTIMONY WRITTEN DEEP IN MY SOUL.
