Forrest Gump and the Influence of Your Life

No matter what mood I’m in or how many times I’ve seen it, I can always watch Forrest Gump.

The stories draw you in and the characters feel like old friends.

It’s beautiful to see how one life can influence so many others.

Easily, we forget that we have the potential to be a positive influence in the lives of those around us, and for me, this movie reminds me of that fact.

James Truslow Adams said, “The great use of life is to spend it on something that will outlast it.”

How are you spending your life?

Will people feel the reverberations of your existence when you’re dead and gone?

Or, Will your influence end when you are six feet under?
