Theme and Visual Story Telling

This is Hester Park here in Greensboro, North Carolina. I really like the way this wooded area is designed. It's not completely wooded. You can see your way through from one end to another. I love to come here and clear my head. There's nothing like a walk through the woods. It often feels as if my pores have opened up each time I go here allowing the wind to blow through me and I guess you can say that I get a cleansing feeling. All my troubles flush away; at least for a little while. After the walk through the woods I feel better refreshed in my mind and able to face my problems/issues over coming them. I feel helped and relaxed.
I love looking at these creatures wherever I see them. They actually give me hope at times when I feel like giving up. I look at these creatures and I see them how they stick together. I never see just one of them alone at any giving time of the day. When they are hungry they always find something to eat and drink. No matter what these creatures go through, good, bad, happy, or sad, they go through together. This encourages me. Now I do have humans who encourages me also, but sometimes I just want other people to just leave me alone. I want to take a walk through the woods at Hester Park, look at these creatures play in the water and often eat from the water. They don't complain, they just live in the image that God made them. This is what I want in my life; to not complain too much but to live the life in the image that God made for me.
This to me is a beautiful little well manicured island, also located at Hester Park in Greensboro, North Carolina. Sometimes I look at this island and wish that I was somewhere where nobody knows me and I can just be me. No I am not a loner; I do have friends and I do know the Lord Jesus as my personal savior. Therefore I do have a life. However I do sometimes wish that I could have a life do over. In times like these I take me a walk through the woods of Hester Park and get over it and move on with my life. It is nice to have a place to go and relax before going home for the day. This helps me not to bring home any anguish from my day to my wife and daughter.
I pass by this water tower everyday leaving and coming home. Sometimes I stop at the gas station next door to it and just stare at this water tower. I often imagine this water tower to be a space ship landed on earth and have not made any attempts to communicate with humanity. I am currently 50 years old and I still love to watch cartoons. I often see myself being taken aboard this ship and I draw what I see in cartoon images. I love to look at things including realistic things and draw them as if they were cartoons.
This is one of the rear entrances to Four Seasons Mall here in Greensboro, North Carolina. I really like the mall. I can always find good shopping here. I also meet new people and create new friends here at this mall. I love people and here I can meet various types of people's personalities. 
This Koury Convention Center is really a hughe place. A lot of famous people who come through Greensboro, North Carolina for business purposes holds their meetings, conferences, etc... here. The smaller building next door is a major hotel in which I forgot the name of it, however people who travel from near and afar can sleep here and join the festivities on time because the hotel and the center is right next door to each other. I like these facilities because they remind me of my daughter whom when she was a young child she used to ask me if Zack and Cody lived there. Zack and Cody are two television characters with their own sitcom show on the Disney channel. When I pass by these buildings I always think of my precious little girl. My daughter is 16 now and I desire to make new memories with her but she seems to be in her own world now. I still love her though.
This is another image of the Koury Convention Center. I mention previously that I love cartoons. One of my favorites is Spider Man. I often think that I have Spider man powers and could climb buildings like a spider and spin web from my hands and swing from one level to the next one. In such a dream/day dream I could swing from my web all day; however there are times when my web fails and I begin to fall towards the ground. Almost always when I am just about to hit the ground I wake up screaming for dear life. 
I love to shop, especially from electronics departments. As I was leaving a Roses department store in this shopping center, I looked to my right then to my left making sure the parking lot was clear to step out on. As I looked out to the Left I saw something so beautiful. I saw a vanishing point on the light pole just beyond the green bushes. I am getting to the point where I am really seeing the beauty in things and places and I am snapping me some photos.
This is Conn's Home Plus and it is also my favorite place to shop here in Greensboro, North Carolina. I love the fonts created for this company just as I love the merchandise that this company sells. Their prices are somewhat higher that some of their competitors, however I really don't mind pay more for the things I want just as long as I get quality merchandise along with quality customer service. 
Though I never have eaten at Firehouse Subs I do love me some sub sandwiches. I prefer Subway over all other sandwich shops. I have used the Vision eye center before. These two businesses as just background prompts. The focus on this image are the three vehicles showed. These vehicles looks like they are in the parking lot but they are actually on the open road stopped at a signal light. These vehicles reminds me of road trips my family used to take. My brothers and sister use to play a game called thats my car. When we passed by a car we liked we yell that's my car and from that point on every vehicle we saw passing by which was that color of my selected car was mine. We laughed at each other if our car turned out to look like a hoopty.
