At the begining of the film,i thought gump was a unfortunate guy.But my opinion changed little by little. Although he was always made fun of by others because of his low IQ,he leads a happier life than most of the others.And he didn't have many things such as fame and wealth to worry about.
He was more genuine beacaues he didn't think about as much as others.So he gained more friendship.What do you think of him?

I think it is not really about being lucky but it is about Gump's character that made him what he is. Simple, loyal, dedicated and true.
I believe in the saying that "Watch your thoughts for it may become your actions, watch your actions for it may become your habit, watch your habit it may become your character and finally watch your character it may become your destiny"

Yeah,what you just said sounds reasonable.But I mean that Gump was unfortunate because of his unnormal IQ. He had a great mother who never gave up.She taught little Gump the way of making people and lots of principles.And she led him to the right way.The most important thing is that gump led a happy life.So he was not so unfortunate. Do you agree?
Thanks for sharing.

I think Forrest Gump is lucky because he was able to make most of what he had. Unlike others with the same condition, he was able to find true friends and even love. He was able to lead a normal and happy life.

He is a lucky person, he sees the simple things very special. He is lucky with his friends, mother, wife and a son.
