"Forrest Gump" is undoubtedly one of the most lovable movie characters of all time. We can all admit that he has made us shed both happy and sad tears time and time before. No matter how many times we watch this movie, knowing just what comes next, we can’t help but become emotionally destroyed by the wise words of Forrest Gump. Here are 11 times Forrest Gump hit us right in the feels.

1. “Mama always said, dying was a part of life. I sure wish it wasn’t.”


2. “My name’s Forrest Gump. People call me Forrest Gump.”


3. “Jenny and me was like peas and carrots.”


4. “Sometimes, I guess there just aren't enough rocks.”


5. “Why don't you love me, Jenny? I'm not a smart man... but I know what love is.”


6. “I don't know if Momma was right or if it's Lieutenant Dan. I don't know if we each have a destiny, or if we're all just floating around accidental-like on a breeze, but I think maybe it's both. Maybe both is happening at the same time.”


7. “I had never seen anything so beautiful in my life. She was like angel.”


8.“I miss you, Jenny.”


9. "Bubba was my best good friend. And even I know that ain’t something you can find just around the corner."


10. “You’re my girl.”


11. “My mama always said, ‘Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re gonna get.”


Thank you, Forrest.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day.
