Young and in love Margret and David seemed not to have a care in the world. Everything was done on a whim and they never worried about money and material possessions. It wasn't until Margret found herself pregnant at the age of twenty two that the couple realized they needed to get a grip on reality, and fast. Six months into their pregnancy the couple married despite Margret's parent's views of their marriage being based on pregnancy. On a late afternoon near the end of August, Margret gave birth to a beautiful baby boy that would change their lives forever. Deciding on a name for the child wasn't a hard decision for either. Both growing up with a carefree attitude and a love for the music and arts, they could only fittingly name their son Winston after the late John Lennon.
They raised there son to grow up in the world having a love for everyone and everything. Instilling the same carefree attitude and love in their son which they still had yet to let go of. People thought it was strange, but it was exactly this that set Winston apart from kids his own age. All through elementary school Winston would get in trouble for the most basic of things. Wanting to take class pets out for recess or cutting other people's hair during art class. Things that he would do were never done to hurt other people, Winston wanted to help everybody and everything in any way that he could. His parents simply said it was Winston showing his creative expression and they never disciplined him for it.
Winston grew up very close with his mother and never felt the need to have a large amount of friends his age. He was happiest spending afternoons with his mother either helping her in the kitchen or with the laundry. Getting older and growing out of doing those things was only natural for Winston. He found himself getting interested in art. Anything that he could do to show someone else what was in his head, Winston would do it. Abstract painting seemed to be the best outlet for him. But of course it wasn't something that Winston could take with him which is when he started sketching. Painting and sketching turned into photography which seemed to be what Winston became more interested in through high school. While his cameras were never expensive or professional, he made the best with what he had.
Being behind a camera seemed to be where Winston grew comfortable. Taking pictures of even simple things like door handles were interesting to him. With his love for photos and his camera, you would think that photography classes would interest him. Surprisingly opposite Winston didn't want to take a class. In his opinion, they were only going to teach him what he could and couldn't take pictures of. In any case his hobby grew into something that he not only loved but was very good at.
With his strong love for art and his carefree attitude it was easy for Winston to make friends. always being the type of person that people wanted to be around whenever possible or even just to cheer them up. As odd and out there as he can be, Winston likes to think that people embrace his quarks which seem to go over well.
Unlike most kids his own age Winston isn't aware of pop culture from this day and age. He couldn't tell you what a bromance is or who The Jonas Brothers are. Winston doesn't watch much television or listen to music that wasn't made before the 80's. He doesn't own a cell phone or know what an Ipod is. Perhaps these things make him naive but Winston doesn't see the use for them. His parents raised him not to care about so much about the material things in life.
It would almost be a mystery to figure out how exactly Winston ended up at Tegesta. His parents were rich nor powerful and Winston didn't inspire to be a business mogul. It was only at the hand of his grandparents that Winston got into Tegesta. They could see the potential that Winston has to go the extra mile in life and they wanted the best for their grandson. Being one of the smartest in his grade proved them right. Winston did the best that he could with school which seemed to be paying off for him. Exactly how his book smarts were going to help him with photography he didn't know, but if it made his grandparents and his parents happy, then it was a good enough balance for him.
