Modern Forest Gump
The setting is in a park, 2015 with a modern interpretation of what a youth would say to the wisdom Mrs.Gump provided.
-Mrs. Gump and Forest sitting on the bench.
Mrs. Gump- Life is like a box of chocolates Forest; you never know what you're going to get.
Forest- Well, I don't think that's true Mama. I mean, I know if I eat that box of chocolates, I'll get fat, become diabetic, or if I don't eat those chocolates they'll melt and I'll regret it.

Mrs. Gump: Well then Forest, which one will you choose...
Fast-forward 10 years and an extremely fat, hairless, disheveled defeated looking Forest is pictured saying:
I've eating a lot of life...
