Never have something said in a movie hit me as hard as this. Just watched Rocky Balboa not long ago on cable. Was (well still am) a big fan of the show. My mom made a very funny comment when i told her im watching that. She said "Of all shows you want to watch Rocky." Well she thought im watching the old movie ver and not the latest one.
Well these few sentence that Rocky said to his son had actually hit me hard.
"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't 'bout how hard you hit; it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done. Now, if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hit, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you are because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain't you. You're better than that!"
I could'nt agree more. Hearing that made me felt so much better with my life and moving forward. To me its not just a boxing show its a show about how we should view about life.
Well thats about it for today.
