Rocky Balboa Speech To Son4/11/2021
Ive heard similar phrases and words, but this particular set sunk in deep down.Anthony Robbins taught me that at the most random time, you can hear something that will Awaken the Giant Within.I wrote about how I went from this negative, depressed teen (for very good reason) to overcoming and most importantly, understanding what happened so I could move on and not let the past affect my future.
Ive personally known people that survived their partner committing suicide, the loss of their 8 year old son, cancer survivors, losing millions due to a bad business deal, divorce and more. Yes, a little dark for todays post maybe, but look beyond the pain. They learned from those experiences, they will never forget the feelings those experiences brought. Today, reflect on those times in your life that you stood up and moved forward. Give thanks to your strength and treat yourself to a little something nice today.

He is minor character in Rocky II, Rocky III and Rocky IV, the deuteragonist in Rocky V, the tritagonist in Rocky Balboa and a cameo character in Creed II. He was raised in the Balboa mansion with his father Rocky, his mother Adrian, and his uncle, Paulie At school, he was an honour roll student and had many friends; he and Rocky even made friends with former champion Apollo Creed. His parents raised him to believe that using his mind, and not fighting, was the best way to solve his problems. When the Balboas lost their fortune and had to file for bankruptcy, Robert was especially devastated. In 1986, the family was forced to relocate back to Rockys old South Philadelphia neighbourhood, where Robert would have to attend the same inner city school his father did. He didnt grow up on the tough Philly streets like his father, and was afraid of how he would or wouldnt fit in. Rocky himself was concerned about his son, fearing that some of the kids might start bullying him just because hes the son of Rocky Balboa. Robert eventually befriended a female classmate named Jewel, but he also ran into trouble with two bullies. When it was apparent that his father expected him to handle the problem by himself, Robert asked his uncle Paulie to help him learn to fight. He also becomes very good at boxing, and when the bully comes to him to force him for more money, Robert took off his backpack and got ready to fight, which he ended up winning after a brief battle. He also became a tough boy, and a street-smart kid and he has now became a very tough kid. Young Rocky, Jr. began to feel that Rocky was paying more attention to Tommy than to him. Even when Robert told his father how he confronted his tormentors and was victorious, Rocky seemed more interested in training his protege. Becoming increasingly angry with his father, Robert found comfort with his friends (which included the two boys who once tormented him). He even began to act like they did, smoking, staying out late and hanging out on street corners. One night, a heated confrontation made Rocky see how he was treating his son. Right there he promised to make things right between them again. Robert is convinced that the only reason he has the job and the friends that he did have was due to being the son of the famous Rocky Balboa. Robert did not want Rocky to get back in the ring; however he put that all aside when he realised his father was serious about fighting again, and with a change of heart, becomes one of Rockys biggest supporters in his comeback attempt. Rocky explains that he moved to Vancouver with his girlfriend and got a good job there. Rocky says that he moved because he was tired of being remembered as just Rocky Balboas son, that was just a rumour. Eventually, Rocky visited Robert in Vancouver and learned that he married his girlfriend and have a son named Logan, remarking that Logan looks just like his (Roberts) mother. The fifth film seems to take place directly after the fourth instalment where Robert was 9 years old. However, when Rocky returns to America, his son is suddenly a teenager at the age of 14.
