Life is hard. There's no way around it. That's why we, as humans, look to our friends, parents, favorite movies, horoscopes, and even fortune cookies to help guide us through life. Movies, in addition to my friends and parents, have helped me overcome the struggles life has thrown at me. Tom Hanks, in particular, has dished out some rather sage advice through his movies over the years. Woody's exclamation of, "You are a toy!" served to remind Buzz Lightyear of who he was in Toy Story. And even though Forrest Gump didn't have a high IQ, he had a greater understanding of human nature then some philosophers. So the next time life doesn't go your way, just remember what Tom Hanks would say.
