In It's a Wonderful Life, the heart-wrenching moment comes when George Bailey is shown what life would have been like if he didn't exist due to hopelessness. Realizing the fact that he has touched so many lives so profoundly is the greatest surprise he never even imagined could happen. His breakdown and support from his friends and family reaffirm his worthiness. The last gift is a life reimagined through love and community reminding us that in the depths of our darkest night, we are never alone and that our lives matter.
