Miracle

During my first visit to Miracle Hill, I had the opportunity to assist and help the elder community. This experience exposed me to the reality of what these individuals are daily living, and taught me that nursing is more than giving medication and changing dressings; nursing has the power of making people feel better even when it is almost impossible. My assigned patient was Ms. L. She is a 97 years old lady and it has been approximately 3 months since she moved to the facility. She has a…

“Miracle Maker,” possibly one of the best films explaining the life of Jesus Christ. This film consisted of various stories from the Synoptic Gospels: Matthew, Mark, and Luke. Since the movie was only approximately one hour and a half; it would be impossible for the director of the film to include every story in every gospel. Instead, the director of the film had to pick some of the most significant stories from the gospels, and they also had to exclude some significant stories. The director…

Miracle Cures sheds light on the daily life of citizens in medieval Europe, where the only hope for curing an illness was to travel distances for a possible healing. Chaucer shows the purpose of a pilgrimage as an opportunity to cleanse the body of sins. The Pardoner, one of Chaucer’s characters, sells indulgences, pardons and relics.

Doctors and nurses flocked in by the dozens to save the lives of these children. Hundreds of patients were treated and released,…

Hume argues that miracles are based purely on experience and that we essentially can’t trust anyone’s judgement because of that. He claims that people are untrustworthy, and because it is impossible to tell whether or not they are making something up or not, we should just assume that they are and we therefore cannot take their word for their experience into consideration when it comes to miracles. A flaw in this argument, however, is that we would have to apply this philosophy to the ideas of…

meet the problem and even stop thinking. However, some people who have a great ability to react solve the situation calmly and rationally. 'SULLY' is the best example of it, and the movie impacted me in powerful ways. This movie is referring about 'Miracle of the Hudson' that occurred in 2009. In the movie, the captain of the airplane fell on the Hudson Lake saved his passengers by demonstrating his excellent ability to react. When the airplane crashed to droves of birds, he reacted calmly, so…

ones life. It was my senior year in high school until I realized what happens when one gets involved in their community. Being involved in the Miracle League not only helped the kids, it helped me as a person. I still remember the first time I went to the Miracle League. It was a tradition of my baseball team to go to the Miracle League once a year. I was nervous, and did not know what to expect. It was a steaming hot Saturday morning the day we went. I could feel the…
