about this story

One word I would associate with each image:

1. Woman in car: Curiosity
2. Mannequin: Elegance
3. Park sign: Contemplation
4. Bus at stop: Determination
5. Foggy mountains: Mystery

Song that comes to mind for these images: "Don't Stop Believin'" by Journey

Commonalities in the images: All the images inspire a sense of exploration, either physically or emotionally.

Short Story: The bustling city Claire had always called home, was beginning to lack meaning. Sitting curiously in the back seat of her taxi, she began to dream of a calm beyond the concrete horizon.

Gazing out the window, Claire’s attention was drawn to a nearby shop where a lavishly dressed mannequin stood. An elegance that no longer sparked excitement.

Continuing her commute, a sign caught Claire’s eye, reading "PARK CLOSED, SUNSET DAILY." As she contemplated, the words whispered the possibility of a gentle calm. Determined, Claire took this as a sign and immediately boarded a bus.

As each stop passed however, Claire stood frozen to her seat. Not daring to exit the bus. That was until she arrived at a foggy mountain range, blanked in mystery. With determination in her heart and the classic tune of "Don't Stop Believin" stuck in her head, Claire began her journey into the unknown
