SUMMARY
In the story it shows that Dr. Lazaro is emotionally and objective detached, as required by his profession.
As a doctor he inherit the power to either save or heal the patient and allow the effects of disease to snuff life are perhaps the reason why he had emotionally detached.
In this case it’s also one thing why Dr. Lazaro loses his faith to God, especially because of certain critical events in his life.
Not only this could be the factor why he loses his faith, as a doctor, exposed to seeing patients undergo traumatic pain and deep suffering, that make his feeling numb.
It shows how weak he is as a doctor that he could not do anything in order to save the lives of his patients, and even more when his son committed suicide and he even done anything in order to save the life of his son.
As human we always tend to blame God on the things that happen in our lives especially the negative one and it usually leads to lose our faith to God.
The things that we could not handle in our life are the reasons why we do not trust God, we think that God is punishing us because of our sins, but there’s a reason why these things are happening to our lives.
In our life there are things that might not happen the way we want to be. Every circumstance, situations in our lives has a reason. We should take it positively and Godly. God knows what is best for us even though it hurt us. In the story it seems that time those not exist for Dr Lazaro, for time to exist there must be a change (cf. Br. Ryan Oliver Bautista SDB, Good Night Talk).
At the end of the story time already exist in the life of Dr Lazaro as his son Ben open his faith to God again. In our life God will use an instrument that will represent him to be our guide and help in every struggle in our life. God will never leave us and we will never walk alone because God is always there for us.

MORAL LESSON
Time is the most important thing in the world that you can give to your family and to your love

    We have been prey to bad people, and we have lost everything. A few times. I have learned by taking the rough road that without God’s presence, leadership, and Grace in my life, there is danger and failure. When I am walking with God, bad things still happen, but I am able to deal with them and find a way out for myself, and sometimes my children. I am learning to not forgive myself, and allow God to love me, I set us all up for defeat. I am getting used to living in Grace. I want that for my children. I want that for everyone! God is good, and we are blessed. Even with the hard things that temper…

    Right from the beginning, Twyker places recurring motifs such as spirals and clocks to emphasize time's overarching authority and how we are bound to time. For example in the opening scene of the movie, the audience is exposed to a shot of a large dragon-shaped clock, the low angle that Twyker uses emphasizes the power and consumptive nature of time. We also learn that we are in a race against time and that it pushes us to do extraordinary feats. Twyker demonstrates this through his use of the split screen sequences where Lola and Manni are in the frame and a clock appears at the bottom, this emphasizes the presence of time everywhere and our race against time and how time is consumptive of us. It is through these distinctively visual techniques that Tom Twyker uses to convey time as consuming and influential to all of us, and that we are all in a race against…

    The ending of a novel can be evaluated by the reader in several different ways, however to properly analyze the work is to further explore the logic of how everything has come to be. The ability of the author to show the reader that the ending is reasonable from the preceding action and the character’s nature is what should truly be examined. Not only is the ending of The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao by Junot Diaz both happy and unhappy, it is logical in the sense that it follows logically from the climax of the novel all while the character’s have been constant throughout, except Oscar. Oscar, the protagonist experiences a life-changing transformation that leads to his untimely death. However, the ending is convincing because of this transformation and it is convincing that the novel would end the way it would. Diaz wrote this novel in a way that kept the reader captivated and interested because his logic can not be questioned.…

    Trauma is inescapable and intriguing in real life, but not to the dramatic extent depicted in the media. Television inaccurately portrays the life of a physician in the trauma center. Television portrays trauma as excitement and not as an issue. We watch heaps of physicians scurrying around an overcrowded emergency room and we can feel the anxiety. Every case shown is captivating and makes us want to be there. Tara Parker- Pope reminds us that television isn’t reality. She points out that “fictional doctors also see more “high-adrenaline” cases than most real doctors see in their entire career” (Parker-Pope).…

    Throughout ones journey in life, our individual perceptions of faith in God, in mankind, and in ourselves, guide us along our path. In life our faith is what keeps us going. A person 's faith is not necessarily their religion, but can also be what they believe in or morals. Often times in life, events or people cause a person to lose faith in what they are doing or even in themselves. For example, a player on a football team goes into a game with their mind set on winning. During the game they lose the best player on the team on the first play of the game and the other team scores within seconds of the start of the game. Events like that during a game is enough to cause many players on the team to lose faith in themselves as well as the team. Our faith can also determine whether or not we overcome an obstacle in life. If a person believes strongly enough in what they are doing he will almost always come out of a situation victorious. In the Young Goodman Brown, his faith is tested throughout the story.…

    People believe that God is standing there ready to punish us for our wrongdoings but in actuality God is not standing over us ready to punish us when we do wrong a lot of people think and believe and even say if you do this God will punish you like they say in Spanish, Diosito te va castigar, also saying this because of our suffering does it mean that God is punishing us many times we do our own suffering because of our own Disobedience to God. There are blessing for obedience and there's curse for Disobedience a lot of suffering that we go through is because of our own doing not of God's doing so we have to acknowledge that our sufferings come through times in our lives that we have done something or have said something 2 suffer and that is…

    He has also lost his faith because he has been a witness to countless, seemingly random deaths: There is a patient with cancer, whose racking pain even morphine can’t assuage anymore; there is the baby who is now dying from tetanus; but most of all, there was his eldest son who, we later learn, committed suicide. From the latter, the Lazaro family “died” to each other as well. It made the doctor focus mechanically on his job, just to forget the pain, and his wife became more immersed in religion than in family.…

    In these past few days, I have been too busy working or studying for our upcoming examinations. But before that, we had a lot of time we did not know that would just passed by us, without even informing us that it would quickly fly and then be gone. During those times, I was just enjoying myself using those free times playing my gadgets, sometimes doing the assignments and most of the time sleeping or eating. I did not realize that I have wasted so much time that instead I used for studying, I used it for nothing. But still, I talk to God every morning and every night thanking him for everything he has done for me and for my family.…
