Today, I gave myself a little break and watched a movie, "Forrest Gump".

• I think, no matter what stage of life someone is in, everyone can take away something meaningful from Gump’s story. We can learn a lot when we see the world through his eyes.

"Life is just like a box of chocolate. You never know what you're gonna get." (the quote which made me think)

• A man called Forrest Gump was born with intellectual disabilities. At first, he can't join the rest of the children at school as he's different from them. However, his mum says: "Don't let anybody tell you they're better than you".

• Over the years, this man achieves incredible things, being a Ping-pong champion, saving his friends during the army and even launching a lucrative business. However, he never expects any good results or becomes happy when he does well. He just loves the process. I'd surely recommend you, guys to watch this movie.

-Other lessons you can learn from this movie:

• Stay optimistic
• Money doesn’t make you happy
• Happy endings don’t always come straight away
• Intelligence isn’t everything
• You never really know what you’re capable of
• Truly loving someone means letting them go
• Pain can be channeled into something productive
• Appreciate life while you have it
• Do what you Love
• Don't be Afraid to try New Things
