  In this paper, I will explain in as simple and intuitive physical terms as
possible what generalized parton distributions are, what new information about
the structure of hadrons they convey and therefore what picture of the hadron
will emerge. To develop this picture, I will use the example of deeply virtual
Compton scattering (DVCS) and exclusive meson electroproduction processes.
Based on this picture, I will make some general predictions for these
processes.
