I wanna give you a gift - a series of gifts

“I wanna give you a gift - a series of gifts, leading up to... well, I wanna call it "the ultimate gift;" but, you fail in any way, it's over.”

Dear friends, How would you feel if you had a billionaire grandpa or billionaire dad? Especially, how would you feel if he was going to give you whole bunch of money after his death? What would happen if he already deceased after made you as his successor? You may feel sad but that sadness comes with a fortune. You would be a billionaire.

When Red Stevens dies members of his family feel more or less like you. Even though It doesn't reflect any sadness about Red, everybody are curious about what Mr. Stevens kept for them through his last will. Jason Stevens, beloved grandson of Red, comes to funeral with his girlfriends. No sad at all. He lived all his life with a trust fund and never did a job and want to continue his lifestyle forever.

After the solemn funeral of Red, his wealthy family get together around the office table of old Mr. Hamilton, the family lawyer. Dissatisfaction goes around everywhere. Everyone leave with dissatisfaction about what they have gotten. Except Jason who still doesn’t know what he will have. He sits there without sense.

Spoiler alert: If you want to see the movie with curiosity just go and watch before reading beyond this.

Finally, it’s Jason’s time. Jason and Hamilton appear in a room without anyone but themselves. There is a magic box appears middle of the table. Then deceased Red speaks “I wanna give you a gift - a series of gifts, leading up to... well, I wanna call it "the ultimate gift;" but, you fail in any way, it's over.” It’s recorded speech of Red before his death. Now Jason starts his journey to find his gift, literally series of gifts.

Dear friends, I detailed you beginning of one of my favorite movies, The Ultimate Gift. It was directed by Michael O. Sajbel based on Jim Stovall’s novel 'The Ultimate Gift'. Such a nice movie I have ever seen. It shows us the value of experienced life rather than billion dollars. As I mentioned before, plot goes around rich grandfather who doesn’t like to give his money to hands with unlifted fingers or to a person who doesn’t know value of money, amount of tears and sweats spent to earn. Throughout the plot grandfather empowers his grandson to be experienced enough to bear billions of  dollars.

These experiences shows as series of gifts, series of twelve gifts which lead to ultimate gift. The gift of work, the gift of money, the gift of friends, the gift of learning, the gift of problems, the gift of family, the gift of laughter, the gift of dreams, the gift of giving, the gift of gratitude, the gift of a day, the gift of love all are gifts he received.

He, Jason, flied to rural Texas to collect something he don’t know. Lazy boy who not lift a finger had to woke up early in the morning to work hard in a field of Texas. He had to work under hot sun. After some time he came back with nothing, but with the gift of work.

He found one true friend. He survived from zero money condition. He helped to others. He learned to help others. Finally, he got his fortune with a bunch of life values.

My dear friends, did he acquire billions of dollars only, didn’t he? No. He acquired billions of dollars with a new life. A better life. That’s the ultimate gift.
