Sometimes when I go to the mall or when i'm walking around I look at everyone.. and when i see all the people I say to myself "everybody has a story." It fascinates me. The mailman. The bus driver. The cashier. The asian lady doing my eyebrows. The homeless man i see everyday walking home...
everybody has a story of there own. A story to tell.Thats' why i tend not to judge. Everybody does something for a reason. And everybody has a story. 6 billion stories...I am a teen who is lost... Knows what they want for the future (want to be a filmaker) but doesn't know how to accomplish it. Been through the worst things anybody can imagine. Poverty.Molestation.Homelessne... what's your story?

I went to Landmark Education's The Forum, and they teach you that your story is whatever you choose it to be. Like, you pick the five things that happened to you that are the most important things, happy or sad. Then, you tell them to other people, and they tell you their five things, and at some point, I realized that the five things are not the most important things, they're just whatever you choose to say are the most important. So, your story can be "poverty, molestation, homelessness" or it could be, "smart, ambitious, thoughtful." Your story is whatever you choose, and you can choose anything. My story is that everyone has choices, everyone gets to participate, rejection never causes bleeding, and the things that happen to you only cripple you if you let them.

for a long time i always wonder what other people are doing that i dont know about. I always thought that my life is one big movie and that the star is well... me! like almost i was star of the entire world and that everybody else is like a extra. I know im weird lol.
If you think about it, you are just a small, insignificant part of this world. Nobody except your loved ones gives a **** about you if die or get hurt. Sure you may make it to the headline news but nobody remembers you the next day.
I dont like it but thats the way the world works, Im confused on a lot of things. Im big on human behavior but theres so much mystery out there it makes my head hurt thinking about it.
I dont have a story, im just a person who wakes up, goes to work, come back eat dinner and goes to sleep, and does the same thing all over the next day and the next and the next...

My story is nothing compared to yours. I know I like to watch movies on how people come back from hitting bottom, for the lack of a better word.
Your story sounds like it would make a good movie, sort of a "rags to riches" story. Try setting your goals on that ideal. To me, watching that gives me a reality check. I realize there are people out there far worse off than I am.
Keep thinking along those lines. Everyone does have a story, and you will find a few that will fascinate you and be worth the time.

Well when I was brought home from the hospital, my parents tried to get me to play with these silly toys, but I always had my eyes on this Charlotte Hornets miniature basketball at my grandparents' house. I was only two months old, but I would reach for it and point and stuff and finally they put me up to it and i just patted it like i was really dribbling and tried to pick it up, which i was not strong enough to do,etc. Well I grew up with a basketball consistently in my hands. I've been through hell and high water but basketball has always kept me in check. My dream of making varsity next year as a sophomore (which is hard as hell to do at my school) and eventually going on to be a scholarship player for the Tennessee Lady Vols keeps me motivated to stay on the right track and to keep my grades up and stay out of trouble and keep working hard. The last couple years in my home have not been pleasant, and it gets worse everyday, but knowing that if i just gave up, and ended everything..my life, my dreams, etc. , that i would be letting down my team and my coaches--the real people who care about me is just too much to handle.. If it wasnt for basketball I would not be here today. Thats my story

Well, not much like yours but I know what you mean. You just kinda look at people and wonder what is their story. Why do they dress the way they dress. I mean I know I would like to know. But anyway...my parents divorced when I was about 2 years old and my mom remarried to my step-dad just about 6 or 7 months after that. Fishy, I know. And I'm 18 now and they still fight. So haven't been through much except trich and depression and anorexia. Not much. but it's my story. Well not all of it. and for that i would have to write a book.lol.

You've asked for our opinion in the heading, but the body of your request is for a story - and as a potential filmmaker, the right story can be helpful - unfortunately out of the 6 billion people, only about 12,592 have stories that anyone would pay money to see transferred onto celluloid.

My story is that I am a kid who only been through a serious case of appendicitis when i was 4. i kept getting sent to the doctors office. They told me i had a stomach ache, but then the hospital said i had a serious case of appendicitis where it was too late to simply remove it. idk much about it i just learned how serious it was about a year ago.
