Mom rented the movie Rocky Balboa on Saturday. I was named after Rocky and I was happy to wathc with the family. It was a great movie. And Rocky has a blog like me! My favorite part is when he adopts this dog and names it Punchy. 
Paulie says, "What an ugly dog!" but I disagree.
When the movie opens we find out that Adrian is dead, Rocky is running a restaurant and he has trouble with his kid. He decides to fight again, even though he's over 50. He trains (with Punchy) and has the fight. You'll have to watch the movie to see who wins. It was a great movie and the them is summed up by Rocky's speech to his son:
"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 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 think that sums up life pretty well. I've lived allot of that in my short life and I'm sure I'll experience more of it. I hope you can have a good attitude when life hits you hard and that you can keep moving forward.
