That driving sentiment that’s prominent throughout the film felt insanely instrumental to making certain decisions that helped me move forward despite mental health issues previously preventing me from it. Mainly my decision to go ahead with university. There was a time where I was only going to university because I felt like that was expected of me, and then one day I actually felt it within myself that I may have a future there. I didn’t know where I’d land but I took a leap of faith. I didn’t worry about if it all worked out, but it was a huge deal to me to make that decision given my mental state at the time. The fact that now, well over a year later, I have recently completed my first year and it has been one of the best years of my life makes me happier than I can put into words. Even better is that the sequel to the film that really pushed me to do things that were huge steps came out at the end of my first year - and it was somehow even better and even more inspiring to me. This duology means more to me than I can even say, god knows how much better they’ll get once the trilogy is finished.
