Not only in the question‚ “What’s my destiny‚” but also in the statement‚ “Death is just a part of life‚” it illustrates that the two are connected with each other. The choices you make are your destiny‚ and will ultimately lead you through the path to meet your death‚ (fate). As Forrest stands there looking down‚ wondering

book related to the movie Forest Gump because of the way people harassed Forrest for being “stupid” and he was always trying to find himself and where he fit in society just like James the main character in The Color Of Water.
