Lift was like a box of chocolates,we never know what you're gonna get.
the famous saying is from Forrest,film Forrest Gump.
the dramatis personae Forrest experienced many kind of arduous life style.when he was free,he put some thoughts on thinking.so he said these words.
it's the same to most of ordinary people,we can never know what we encounter next.
sometimes we jump to conclusions ,and sometimes we are insane.
but most of the time,we never have to know what the conclusion is.
life is like a box of chocolates.just do it.
we are not God.we are more likely to be gump Forrest.

hello midautumn,
i thought this is kind of a joke topic coz it is written here "LIFT" instead of "LIFE"
gladly i do read discussion before i respond LOL
yes life is like a box of chocolate you never know what get till you open it and taste it.
most of the time, it is a sweet one and sometimes it is not the flavor you are expecting at all BUT all in all it gives you excitement coz the hope is there and you know there is another chance that the next one maybe a great one.
i love the movie forest gump coz it provides so much life truthfulness on it.
i was moved when i first saw it coz it kinda reflects what my life is and how i am handling it.
such feeling helps me out a lot and i am very happy that the chocolate i am getting now is the one i am wanting all this time.
life is full of surprises, be it happy or sad BUT despite all this life is worth living coz you learn and you grow.
some people decided to stop, it is because they dont see the beauty of it and the silver lining of every situation that happens.
i am not an expert but i am happy that i realized the worth of it an an early age.
have a good one!
