Thanks Rocky

Do you know Charles "Chuck" Wepner?
"The Bayonne Bleeder"
He fought against Muhammad Ali. In the 9th round, Wepner even manages to send Ali to the floor. But he gets up again and on lap 15 Wepner goes down. 19 seconds are missing until the final gong. Wepner was the fictional character of boxer Rocky Balboa.
Rocky Balboa really existed.... his name was Wepner 😉
Lying down is not a solution ... get up and fight !!!
There will always be an up and down in life ... that's part of it
Never heard of him before reading your post Bella, but I will look into his story later on today. Nicely said! ;-)
This is really an interesting story .... I do not think many people know about it 😉
Thanks so much for this reminder @flatrider! My family and I have had a rough time lately, but thanks to our faith, we will never give up! Hope you are doing well! : )
Sorry I missed your message @whatisnew and I hope that you and your family are in a good place and faith is so important. Never give up and I'm hanging in there, take care. ;-)
Hugs!No apologies needed my friend. We are all doing much better. Thanks for you concern. There were 2 young deaths in the family, my daughter needed to have emergency surgery and my cat was pretty sick. Our faith pulled us through. Glad to hear that you are doing well @flatrider!
Sorry to hear that @whatisnew and it sounds like life is testing you, and with faith you can get through it. Prayers being dispatched for your babies, moggy included, God Bless.
Thanks so much for the prayers! : ) I am a huge believer in the power of prayer. Thanks again @flatrider! : )
