Forrest Gump lived a gump-like life.
In fact, Forrest invented what it means to be gump-like.
Simple.
Kind.
Open-minded.

Forgiving.
The result was peace. Forrest had peace of mind.
Another result was love. Love for himself. Love for others.
The final result was Gumption. Gumption that leads to success.
Success in business.
Success in friendships.
Success in love.
Success in life.
That success led to wealth.
Financial wealth.
The wealth one receives from meaningful relationships and helping others.
The wealth (and health) from living a simple life.
