Reflection of Chocolate

I decided to chose the quote, "Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what your going to get."-Forrest Gump. This quote means a lot to me because it describes my life and everyone I know. It describes all our lives because in life you never know what is going to happen to you or to someone next. Life is also like a box of chocolate because on most boxes the lids have guides to tell you which piece is which. The guides are important because you may rip it off and throw it to the side and then grab the piece you may not want. This is just like in life when you do not take the time to think about consequences or to read them guides or rules set out for you. Life is like chocolate in the boxes because I personally do not like coconut and if I rush into the box I may accidentally grab the coconut. The reason this is significant is because at first I am glad I got chocolate but then as I start to eat it I realize it is coconut and I regret my decision quickly and I know that if I would have taken the time to look at the guide and think about my consequences I would not have this nasty taste in my mouth. Life is like the taste it leaves in your mouth because you can always spit out the chocolate or stop doing what your doing but the taste or consequence will still linger there. Life is also like chocolate cause you may not always like your options and you can choose not to take any of them or make a decision you may not like. Finally, I believe life is like chocolate because someone may offer you something like chocolate like in life when someone offers you something or gives you a decision to make and on your own you can make the decision to take it or do it. So, in conclusion I believe that life is very much like a box of chocolates and that Forrest Gump is a very make man.
