Life is like a box of chocolates…you never know what you’re gonna get.
Forrest, Forrest Gump is a simple man with little brain activity but good intentions. He struggles through childhood with his best and only friend Jenny. His ‘mama’ teaches him the ways of life and leaves him to choose his destiny. Forrest joins the army for service in Vietnam, finding new friends called Dan and Bubba, he wins medals, starts a ping-pong craze, creates a famous shrimp fishing fleet, inspires people to jog, create the smiley, write bumper stickers and songs, donating to people and meeting the president several times. However this is all irrelevant to Forrest who can only think of his childhood sweetheart Jenny. Who has messed up her life. Although in the end all he wants to prove is that anyone can love anyone.

I have used this movie's message as I saw it in much the same way you have presented it. This movie exemplifies so many meanings the greatest being Love. Love conquers ethic and personal bullying many times turning enemies into friends, diminishing racism, encouraging sacrifice to name a few. The power of significant emotional events can easily be overlooked by those cannot see the unseen. Mark Johnson
