I did quote 1, and I literally put the quote within my story.
"Human beings, like plants, grow in the soil of acceptance, not in the atmosphere of rejection"
It was about someone who found their sense of belonging through the virtual world and where consumed by the relationships she had in this virtual world- where she was "accepted".
Yet, she had the inability to relate to the real world, because she had a still born child and "switched off" and was in a sense "rejected" in the real world. She became deeply depressed, hence couldnt "grow" in the atmosphere of rejection, So this virtual world was a place, a sanctuary where she found a way to belong.
Her husband had to make a avatar user so he could actually connect to his wife.
All VERY TRAGIC...
The ending sentence is "we tried to make a life. Instead we lost two"
Any way, it sounds crap when I summarise it so ill stop now.. Im just hoping it will do well coz it was quite different!
What evs.
So did people incorporate the quote into their story?
