“Is life really like a box of chocolates”?


Like most of us I enjoyed the movie Forrest Gump, the story of Forrest resonated with us on so many levels. Forrest had to overcome so many adversities to become a champion and successful in so many ways!

Although I found the movie great entertainment and very uplifting, I only have one problem with this fantastic movie -  “My mom always said life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get.” To be clear, mamma is always right!! However, “Is life really like a box of chocolates”? I know when I open a box of assorted chocolates I make a conscious decision to pick a chocolate that looks the best and appeals to me.

Much as in life, we make a conscious decision that is the best and appeals to us, like picking the chocolate we will find the most enjoyable. Picking a chocolate at random and hoping you get something you like it not what most people do.

Most assorted chocolate boxes come with a map guiding you to which chocolates you want the most. As in life, some of us have a map guiding us to make the right decisions so we can get the most out of life, while other are unsure of their life direction and working without a guiding map.
Are you just plodding along, is what mamma said right? “Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get?” Or do you want to choose the life you want and not leave it up to random chance?
