Yes, I believe life is like a box of chocolates you never know what you are going to get as in Forrest Gump. But I also believe that you can change what that is, when it comes to it unless you are speaking of death.

Well...it's actually phrased a little differently from that which can change the meaning a bit....
The phrase is: Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're going to get.
In other words, there are things in life that are going to happen to us regardless of how much we scrutinize or try to control them.
It's a little different than not knowing where you're going to end up...because that would indicate that some force picks us up and drops us down onto some unforeseeable life path.
I do believe that things will happen to us which are beyond our control and some of those things will alter where we end up in life. However, I also believe that our reaction to those circumstances is completely within our power...therefore, giving us some say about the outcome and our eventual destiny.
Good Question!

Not really. I usually have a good idea of where I will end up ultimately based on what I put into life. On the other hand, people and their behavior is like a box of chocolates...you truly never know what you're gonna get.

Nope, I don't believe that at all. A box of chocolates usually comes in a wrapper that has the brand of chocolate written on it with tiny pictures of what lies inside. It's no surprise, unless of course it's a blank box or someone just handed me the chocolate out of their pocket. That's when I think twice about eating it and usually do anyways!

Yeah.
I mean no one can control the future and truly predict it.
But i do believe u can make the right and wrong choices to guide ur future.But no one can time travel so far so the future is only a guideline, a guess, a prediction, of many possible outcomes.
Then again it also can depend on your moral and religious views/ up brings.

Look, not to say that you're stupid or anything...but you're dumb. Of course you know what you're going to get in a box of chocolates - it always comes with a diagram somewhere (either on the box or a separate paper) telling you what each chocolate is. You CAN read, right? So don't lie. Also, you've got a pretty idea what you're going to get out of life...it's what you put into it. Unless you wander around aimlessly your whole life and play the lottery or something dumb....

Yep life is like a box of chocolates, sweet, fattening sometimes you encounter real nuts, hard centers, soft centers, and when they're gone you have an empty box, then they bury you in it.

It is true you never know what life is going to throw at you.
Tomorrow you could be in a car accident or the day after that you could get married, a week later you could get cancer.
You never know... But we do have God to help us threw it.

i think it's pre-planned, you can tell by the sheet on the cover of the box that tells you what each chocolate is
