Resistance Isn’t Futile: Bruce Lee

Martial arts master… a person that had already left this world… a man highly respected and looked up to… Bruce Lee is in the heart of many. Normally when Bruce Lee is mentioned, people imagine him with a yellow suit and a pair of nunchucks. However, he isn’t a man that just fights for no reason, but to protect his people, friends and family. His skill to resist the pain and to never give up really is something that lets me respect him highly. Though he had died, I shall never forget such a man…

I never really did understand the words “never give up” until I saw Bruce Lee. I don’t think anyone can replace him from my heart. Some people that see me sometimes call me Bruce Lee because of my race but like I said, no one can replace the real one even if it is I. His persistence is nowhere near my cowardice. However he does give me the encouragement to try things I never had tried before and to never give up. If there’s something I am bad at yet I still consider it as a part of what I like, then his words energizes me to fight on and keep rising up after a fall no matter the pain!

As you may know that Bruce Lee is starred in many movies and movies aren’t always real. I however do not care whether these movies of Bruce Lee are real or fake. As long as Bruce Lee stays with his state of mind as a courageous loving and caring hero is all that matter to me. I can always tell from his face and expression that tell me he is a hard-headed person. Now that is what I am normally called though… However the way they use it to talk to me just means I just don’t listen. Still however those both still mean the persistency of a person. Showing we go through many obstacles and hardships that cover our paths! It is true that I am lazy for whatever reasons but Bruce Lee’s legacy of wits and might had inflicted upon me to become much more mature and allow me to see the future.

Many people think of us Asians to know kung-fu, knowing how to fight… it is not true in many senses. Seeing those movies of Bruce Lee fighting doesn’t mean that all of us know. Another thing is that it counts toward to me as an insult of saying I am like Bruce Lee for he is way more superior than I am. He had great determination and is persistence all throughout the hardships whilst I am nothing but a mere coward. Bruce Lee though did give many people too the ideas of never giving up, allowing them to learn a great knowledge…

His thoughts of kindness, loving and caring encourage me to do the same toward my family and friends. Helping those and care for those that are dear to me… Though it may be a bit too selfish… Bruce Lee had to come over some sacrifices in order to do this and yet that is true in this world. Also a bit of foolishness overcomes me to thinking of being able to do so much as of right now.

Therefore I shall let those characteristics stay in me and release it once the time is ripe. Bruce has became a legend and with that let us carry this legend down further towards history and let it remain until this world is no more…
