Several weeks ago, I was guided to "famous steps" in Philadelphia -- though I didn't know what they meant.
"Don't you know the scene where Rocky ran the steps? It's here!!"
Since my friend was so passionate about the site, I was feeling a bit bad as I actually had never seen the Rocky movie series.
Last night, I finally finished seeing all the six episodes. I thought Rocky IIII sent the most compelling message, and probably the last one, Rocky Balboa, was the most educational. I especially liked his following lines to his son:
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 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.
Well, I think I can appreciate the sight much better if I have a chance to go visit there again......
