I watched a movie today, it was about a football player who got injured on the night they won the championship game.
Since then his life changed, became a farmer, dreams were ruined , scholarship to college was gone, crippled leg, and day by day everything is slowly going down. The only thing keeping him sane are his wife and two little girls.
One day, frost got to his crops—his only hope to get through life and he feels like he couldn’t take it anymore. He tried to unalive himself so his insurance will go to his wife and kids but when he woke up he’s back in high school, quarterback, varsity, teens, his leg is fine and properly working and everything is back to normal.
He had the chance to change everything: the gameplay, the championship game, go to college, leave that small town, become a football star, earn a lot of money, change his fate but the consequences of changing everything will lead to not marrying his wife.
So that night of the championship game he was scared; contemplating about the decision he’s about to make, the choices he’s about to risk.
And then right there, the only option he sees is a version of himself playing football in a big stadium with people cheering up for him and a version of himself with a crippled leg but he’s with the girl he loves the most. In the midst of the crowd, he look for his wife’s face and choose to experience what he had been through just to experience everything together with his wife again.
When he woke up, he's back in his old life and everyone in town was there to help with his farm, to get through it, and that changes his perspective that he’s not alone in this and when he saw his wife, his family, he realize how lucky he is to have them in this version he chose in exchange of his dreams.
