"Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you go to get" Forrest Gump said to a stranger. It is the beginning of the famous movie Forrest Gump which have got six Grand Prixes , such as the best picture , the best actor , the best achievement in directing , adapting drama , the best achievement in film editing and the best visual effect. The film has reflected every aspect of the American’s life and the connotion it contains just like to sent shivers down my backbone.
Forrest Gump, which describes a intellectual disturbance person got a access to success by keeping on running, aims to encourage people to keep on running whatever difficult situation you are in. The protagonist, Forrest Gump, is a normal people whose IQ is lower than others, but he never gives up keeping on running. And the plot which impressed me most is when he runs to a dead end, Forrest Gump just turn around and said serenely:" when I got there, I figured since I'd gone this far, I might as well turn around, just keep on running." I could not help thinking how many people can do this when they meet similar situation as Forrest Gump does. Suddenly, all the circumstance around me disappear and all I thought is the running figure, whose behavior encourage me and almost instantly give me a completely new sense of what life is all about. He takes me from a poor, feeble-minded college student and brings me into his world----a world of purity, courage and persistence.
Keep on running is not much as slogan as belief, which support you energy and motivation to further destination. Life is boundless sea and we are merely small boats sailing on the sea, we never know where are the place belongs to us or what will be happened in the next second. All of thing we can do is keeping on running. Certainly, we may be too tired too keep running and want to have a rest to enjoy what we have and where we are on the path. But what we should bear in mind is not to stop keeping on running after that. Meanwhile, please remember that life is not a race, but a journey to be savored each step of the way.
