Everyone in life has a dream, but the challenge arises when we have to compromise our dreams for the sake of survival.
Often, we find ourselves in situations where we have to set aside our aspirations, and this can make life seem monotonous. This is a common fate for many middle-class people. So, what is LIFE really about ???

In my point of view, Life primarily revolves around two things, One is Money and the other is LOVE. So what does it mean if we have to navigate through life? Are we constantly searching for Love? or Money?

Sometimes, people seek both at the same time, and they might be considered foolish. Those chasing money often find it hard to be content with anything. Those seeking love can either achieve success or face disappointment. Life and Love are intertwined -> life goes well when love is strong, and it falters when love is absent. A person who leaves us without any reason is not the only failure.... Failing to choose the right person for our life is also a failure. Similarly, this is a narrative of a person's journey, filled with the search for Hopes & Love, where he encounters various individuals at different stages. Whether he achieves victory or faces defeat in what he is searching for is all about the story.


Meet LUCAS, a young man from a middle-class family with a heart full of dreams. He wasn't just an ordinary student; he excelled in academics, consistently achieving top marks. Beyond his academic prowess, Lucas had a knack for information technology, and his passion for filmmaking set him apart. People around him didn't simply know him as Lucas, to them, he was the future filmmaker in the making. It was the positive vibes from this supportive environment that fueled his confidence and filled him with hope. His dream was clear – he wanted to become a renowned film director, and he was ready to blend his academic knowledge with his creative talents to make it happen. Throughout his journey, the unshakable support and belief of his family & friends gave him the strength to pursue his dreams.


Meanwhile, in the same bustling city, a delightful girl named LILLY was gracefully navigating the intricate path of life. Her journey was a blend of challenges and moments of pure happiness. Lilly possessed a unique quality – an unshakeable self-confidence that guided her through life's twists and turns. In her world, there were those who offered a helping hand when she needed it, and others who threatened to hold her back. Lilly's remarkable intelligence and quick thinking allowed her to overcome the obstacles that came her way. But she wasn't just an ordinary girl, she was an enchanting angel, gracefully navigating the challenges of life without the need for wings... Now, what's the connection between Lucas and Lilly?


Well, the story begins when Lucas and Lilly crossed paths at the age of 19. A director's mind starts working when there is a spark, and for Lucas, that spark would occur whenever he sees or thinks of Lilly. Both of them attended the same Associate degree college, and it didn't take long for Lucas to feel a special connection with Lilly. Eventually, Lucas came to understand that this enduring feeling was none other than love. Lucas's love for Lilly was deep and sincere, yet he seldom met or communicated with her. This restraint made it challenging for him to express his affection. Nevertheless, he remained in touch with Lilly, cherishing their connection.

As the months passed, Lucas's love for Lilly became a driving force in his life. He couldn't help but think about her constantly. He was determined to win her heart and make her realize that she meant everything to him. He wanted to confess his love, but he was afraid of the possibility of rejection. He didn't want to lose her, so he kept his feelings hidden and focused on pursuing his passion for filmmaking. Even when life presented challenges, his unwavering dedication remained fixed on his dreams.

In this narrative, their love story weaves through the tapestry of their individual journeys, painting a vivid picture of love and ambition. However, fate had other plans, and they couldn't stay together for an extended period. After completing their college studies, they ventured into different educational paths. But even with the physical distance, the spark within Lucas continued to burn brightly. In different cities and pursuing their respective Bachelor's degrees, Lucas and Lilly found themselves separated by both distance and their academic pursuits.

Months had passed since their last encounter, but Lucas couldn't forget her. While he was doing well in his studies, his heart still belonged to his dream of becoming a filmmaker. One fine day, he sat in a park, lost in thought while developing a story that had ignited his creativity just a few days ago. With great focus, he was carefully crafting the plot. In a momentary distraction, he tilted his head up and caught sight of a girl in the distance. It was just a fleeting glimpse, and he soon returned to his writing. Then, an unexpected touch on his shoulder sent shivers down his spine. He turned around to see who it was, and there, standing before him, was Lilly...
