Ant-ul-Hayat

  Background

Planning process of Ant-Ul-Hayat

When we were thinking about our topic the first thought that clicked our mind was depression, sadness, anxiety or emptiness which is so common in today’s generation especially in youngsters. Today’s generation is generally less happy. They think they’re suffering this alone but they don’t know that people who’re close to them suffer too. We decided to choose a topic that target those type of people who’re facing these problems

Purpose

The purpose of this Public Service Message is to tell people about the meaning of life and value of moments and time in life. Life is like a tide Once what’s gone is gone you can never have it back. In Our temporary sadness we’re not the only one who suffers; it's the people around us who love us who suffer with us. And later we yearn for those moments and are constantly reminded of the pain. In the end that pain is not temporary it becomes permanent.

Strategy/ platform

To spread words among youngster’s social media is the best way. We’ve decided to post it on web tv Facebook and YouTube and by screening it in university.

Writing story

The Public Service Message ‘Ant-ul-Hayat’ is based on how temporary sadness can leave marks permanently. This short story is covering three main topics and divided into three parts. First part is hope of a medical student, who works hard for mdcat and has some hope to become a doctor. Second part is depression when she failed to clear mdcat and went through depression and her close people have been through the same pain. Third part is regretting when she regrets being in depression because she lost something that she can never get back because of temporary sadness.
