In A World of Rejection

Hello!

So today, I have an idea for a short film. Basically, I want to show the values of perseverance, positivity and resilience with this story. This isn’t too complex but it deals with a topic that I know most of us or probably all of us doesn’t want to talk about. So here’s the gist for the story titled 

“In a World of Rejection”

 “Beneath the dark clump of clouds, there’s an infinite space, beneath the windows in our eyes, there is light and beneath in the world of rejection, there is love.”

Jason is a simpleton. When he was young, he was an average kid living an average life---playing with friends, eating out with parents and having decent grades. But despite living in comfort, Jason was unhappy. He’s unhappy because everything seemed to be average for him. Although he’s the reserved type, Jason wanted more. He wants to finish college with honors, to have a successful job, a beautiful wife, an enormous house, a highly-respected name, a family whose others envy and a man who achieves the best. He wants to be successful, to be at the top and erase the “average” life he has. Jason doesn’t want comfort---he wants to live taking risks. Because of this ambition, Jason faces a lot of rejection. He cannot have a steady girlfriend because he’s too busy studying, he has too many smart classmate as competitors, he’s not rich to buy envy-worthy stuff. In short, no matter what Jason do, he is still average. But despite the hardships, the quarrels, the pool of tears, the anguish and anxiety of giving your best, but receiving the average, Jason continues lives to live a world of rejection, a world he knows that one day and someday, will change for his best.

I don’t know if I’m doing this right because with this story, my main character will probably continuously face rejection. But the reason I want him to have problems over problems if for his character to develop as a strong, steel-hearted and driven one…and I guess victory taste sweet if you seriously worked hard and desperately seek for it.  


Thank you for reading!
