INSPIRATION FROM CHINA TOWN: HARD WORK


STAYING IN THE HEART OF PHILADELPHIA'S CHINA TOWN IS KINDA DIFFERENT FROM THE INNER  DOWNTOWN AREA AND THE SUBURBS. I CAN STATE THAT BECAUSE I HAVE LIVED IN BOTH AREAS AND FOR THE PAST MONTH I HAVE BEEN IN CHINA TOWN SOAKING UP CHINESE CULTURE. IT'S DIFFERENT IN A NUMBER OF WAYS FROM WORKING HOURS, COMMUNICATION, FOODS, SELECTION OF CRAFT, AND I CAN'T FORGET THE SMELL. I GET A CLEAR VISION OF HOW THE CHINES CULTURE WORKS SO HARD FROM BEING OUT HERE WHICH IS FROM MORNING UNTIL THE EARLY AM HOURS. FROM YOUTH AGES TO OLD WOMEN AND MEN WITH BACK PROBLEMS PEOPLE ARE IN CHINA TOWN GRINDING AND GETTING WORK DONE. I REALIZED IT'S A COMFORT ZONE CHINA TOWN SHARES AND FOR THE PAST MONTH I CAN SAY I HAVE BEEN APART OF THAT. WHEN I WOULD SEE PEOPLE WITH THERE BUSINESS LIGHTS ON I WOULD GET BACK TO WORK EVEN IF I WAS TIRED. SEEING PEOPLE STAY UP ALL NIGHT  PUSHES YOU TO DO THE SAME IN THE BUSINESS YOUR PURSUING. INSPIRATION TO WORK HARD IS IN FULL EFFECT WITHIN THE STREETS OF CHINA TOWN. IF YOUR EVER IN PHILADELPHIA GO TO CHINA TOWN TO SEE HOW DIFFICULT IT IS TO EVEN WALK. THE CULTURE GRINDS ALL THROUGH THE DAY.
