My Future Vision
![]() |
My Future Hopes, Dreams and Desires. Designed by Wayne J. ©2014 |
As a child, I was always observing the fascinating lives of doctors. My goal and desire to being a doctor came from the loss of my great-grandfather. Seeing my great-grandfather sick in the hospital bed really touched me and made me want to help him and provide for him, but I just couldn't, I needed to know how to be a doctor. By being a doctor, I can help millions of other people who are going to go throughout what I went through with my grandfather in the hospital. I can make them feel the assurance that their family or relative is going to feel alright and much better from then on. I want to make people feel happy when they go home with the assurance that their feelings will be eternally kept with them and their family members. Having that pride is priceless, and I wouldn't trade it for anything.
My happiness later on in life will probably come from having my family with me. It's going to be me, my beautiful wife, and two beautiful children. We'll gather around the fireplace in our $2.5 million home and tell stories about what happened when we were all in school. Being happy with my family is what I'm looking forward to when I come home from work everyday. I'm going to walk into the house, kiss my wife, greet our children, and everything else will happen naturally, because nothing can go wrong if you love each other eternally.
My life-long learning will be to endlessly study to become a doctor. By being what I want to be in life,(which is a doctor) I can provide for my family and not have to worry about things that will happen if I didn't have a stable career and couldn't provide at all. But, i can and I will provide for my family, and I can make a little extra to provide for my extended family to. I have my career thoughts and dreams straightened out, the question is, do you? In order to find out what you like best, and to find what you want to do with your life, try various other subjects and learning styles/critiques for a better future goal and life.

Help Restore Purified Drinking Water: designed by Wayne J. ©2014 |
The world would be a far better place to live in if the world had more purified drinking water. Water purification is the process of removing undesirable chemicals, biological contaminants, suspended solids and gasses from contaminated water. In response to this and to give the word out, I created an advertisement on Photoshop to represent the catastrophic events of the world without purified water and what we can do to help. Before creating the Photoshop document, I drew a picture that represented the world losing its water from the oceans and pouring into an enormous cup.
What the picture is supposed to get across is that the Earth's water is slowly on a decline and is rapidly losing the water overall or the water is being contaminated by other chemicals. In the Photoshop document, I presented pictures of dirty water in known communities in the world, then provided the steps to clean and purify water, and at the end provided a picture of purified drinking water in that same community. I had also used a picture of the distribution process of purified drinking water bottles in a factory to get the point across that these very water bottles can evidently save the lives of millions of people who need them, who need purified drinking water. Water is one of the many main keys of survival, without it being clean and drinkable, the world just cannot be a better place.
