Back Talk: A Tale of Self Deprecation

Today's philosophical rant is brought to you by own of my all-time favorite movies, Forrest Gump.

"I happen to believe you make your own destiny. You have to do the best with what God gave you."
"What's my destiny, Momma?"
"You're gonna have to figure that out for yourself, life is like a box of chocolates, Forrest, you never know what you're gonna get."

We are all alone in our lives trying to find out what our purpose is. No one will ever be able to find it for us and there's something profoundly beautiful in that.
