Script

On a hot summer day, Jack the Lumberjack stands at the base of a massive hill, gripping a giant log with both hands. His task is clear but grueling: roll the log up the steep incline. As he pushes, the weight strains his muscles, and the blazing sun beats down on him. He inches closer to the top, but just as success feels within reach, a sudden distraction—a bird’s chirp, a stray branch underfoot, or even his own exhaustion—causes him to lose focus. The log slips from his grasp and tumbles back to where he started. Again and again, he tries, but every attempt ends the same way. Defeated, Jack wipes his brow, sighs, and turns away.

As he steps back, his colleague at the top of the hill calls out to him, waving encouragingly. Jack takes a deep breath and tightens his grip on the log once more. This time, he pushes forward with unwavering focus, ignoring the distractions that had previously caused him to falter. Sweat drips, his arms ache, but he keeps moving—inch by inch, foot by foot. At last, the log reaches the summit. Jack stands beside his colleague, taking in the view, a sense of accomplishment washing over him. But before he can fully celebrate, his colleague nudges him and points toward another, even taller hill in the distance—one stacked high with more logs. Jack sighs, adjusts his hat, and gets ready to push again.
