For it's 'Meet Joe Black'. The whole movie was great, but it's specifically the speech that Anthony Hopkins' character made at the end that really made me reflect on life. "And I'm going to... tell you my one candle wish: that you would have a life as lucky as mine, where you can wake up one morning and say, "I don't want anything more"". Then he proceeds to say "65 years don't they go by in a blink".

I've always heard that life goes by so fast you have to savour every day, but it only really clicked in my head when I heard this speech. Days have been going by so fast for me for the past few years, weeks feel like days and months feel like weeks. This movie indirectly told me to learn more skills, meet new people, challenge yourself, create richer memories making life feel less compressed. All which lead to the ultimate goal: "wake up one morning and say, "I don't want anything more'".
