I am a movie lover. I love the way movies make me feel. I
like to watch movies that bring out my emotion. I think this because I am not a
very emotional person and certain movies allow me to express my emotions on a
level that I am not comfortable with in other settings. So, I tend to gravitate
towards dramas such “My Life”, “I Am Sam”, or “My Girl”. Another favorite of mine is “Forrest Gump”. It
brings out my emotion, but it also recalibrates my perspective on life. You
see, Forrest Gump is the simplest of people. He goes through life without judgment.
To him, life just is, and he is happy to be a part of it. That really resonates
with me.
The movie ends with the introduction between Forrest Gump
and Forrest Junior. The emotion in Forrest Gump after realizing that he has a
son is phenomenal. Ever wonder what pure joy looks like? Watch “Forrest Gump”.
You can see the pure joy in Forrest Gump’s face at the end. His perspective on
life may not be perfect, but there are a number of people today that could
stand to take a few pages from his book. Life isn’t meant to be taken too
seriously; it’s meant to be enjoyed.
Go ahead, enjoy life.
