In his bed
Among the first pictures Randy presented, was one from his childhood in which he was sitting in his bunk bed, looking towards the sky. He then proceeds to tell the audience that the bunk bed was built by his father who despite being a busy man, took the time to interact and play with him. The image is important because it stresses the idea that Randy had an idyllic childhood and this is also one of the reasons why he became successful in life.
The perfect family
Randy talks frequently about his parents and about his childhood. When he did talk about them, Randy portrayed them as perfect parents and the perfect family. The image is important because it is linked with the idea of personal development and how a good family can influence in a positive way the development of a child.
Push-ups
Randy began his lecture by doing some push-ups in front of those who were gathered to hear him speak. The image of Randy doing push-ups is both comical and also has the purpose of destroying the impression that some people in the audience may have had about him when he revealed that he was going to die and had the purpose of showing them that even though he was ill, he was not incapable of functioning as a normal human being.
The room
Randy tells the audience that when he was young, he was allowed by his parents to paint his wall in whatever fashion he wanted to have it painted. Randy thus included elements that interested him and turned his room into a collection of images that represented his passions and aspirations. The image of the room is important because Randy confessed that even after many years, he still enjoys spending time in his old room and looking at the pictures he painted on the walls years ago.
