My best friend Forrest !

Welcome again my dear readers,

I am living such a hectic life right now that I find difficult to write everyday. I have had such good comments about this blog though and I hope you are still coming on a regular basis to check my updates.Today my topic will be a bit more fun and I know that I sometimes write so deep and heavy articles that it feels like I 'm on different planet suddenly but I don't do drugs or alcohol, honestly. Trying to explain the mechanism of our brain in a 5 lines article would be a waste of space. So light and more down to earth article for you my friends :

I have probably watched Forrest Gump fifty times and each time it comes on TV, I have to watch it again. The fascination I have for this movie is out of this world and even if you might not like it as much as I do, you will all agree that Forrest rocks ! 

I wanted to know what was so fascinating about this character that everybody knows and I thought about it. Wait a minute, the guy is not particularly handsome, he is dumb and can' t align two sentences in a row yes true... but we all want to live a life like Forrest Gump. This is exactly the kind of life and attitude an Awaken person would have. It seems that everything he does, everywhere he goes, Forrest succeeds at high level standard. Forrest becomes a football star, a ping pong star, he opens a multi million Shrimp company, meet the president and other celebrities on its way, he becomes a star running all US with a bunch of people behind him and gets married to a beautiful wife who he has a beautiful little boy with. I already can hear people saying " yes Jay M but it's only a movie " ... yes readers it is a movie but it surely is reflection of what can happen in real life if you show so certain attiudes and attributes. I have met people like this and they shared all the same common points :

  

* Forrest is happy wherever and whenever he is. In the middle of the war, he will never complain but still enjoy being with his friends, billionaire he is offered a job to cut the grass and he will like it. He will enjoy all the situations life will put him through. You can't control things that life will throw at you and you can control your attitude. Forrest doesn't need the money to be happy.

* Forrest has no Ego. he will take all insults and bad comments people tell him about his dumbness. He will not show arrogance to people. He will not try to dominate others or think he is dominated so it could deteriorate his energy and mind. Forrest can be rejected by his closed people and still show forgiveness when thy come back to him because they need his help.

* Forrest goes to people to communicate. He is sit on a public chair and engage contact with people around him, telling his life. He will be happy around his friends, and will do everything for them. risking his own life.

* Forrest adapts to change. Across his life, he 's going through so many differents steps and situations and he always changes with no complains ( football, Ping pong,war, schrimps, running...) . This is life and I once said that if you do not adapt you die. People who are accepting and adapt to changes in their life will survive. - Question for a voucher - What age was Steve jobs when he created Apple ? " dont forget to put ur email. Good luck !

We all want to have a friend like Forrest as he could be a model of what it is to really live a full life. This is not about being the boss, the Mac, full of Ego. This is not about showing who has the most of them. This is not about money or cars, about Show business or celebrities. You know, there are some people around us are living a life like Forrest does and they are not full of it.

I forgot one thing to tell you and this is the most important.

** Forrest has a big heart  ** I guess I dont need to explain you this one.

You take care my deep friends.
