See the world from a perspective

Ever since I was very young, I like to watch O. Henry. I have always imagined this kind of life: to be a bystander of life, to record the suffering and happiness of others. In fact, such a wish has not been forgotten ruthlessly by my destiny. So, sometimes I think: if I can’t find a job after graduation, I’ll be a taxi driver, or waitress (probably my age is a bit overweight now), or sit at the sidewalk cafe or sit like O Henry every day. In the park, etc... just to get in touch with and observe all kinds of people every day, quietly experience, record, and spread the lives of others.
Many professions can satisfy my desire. When I was applying for the college entrance examination, my dad tempted me with a major in law, saying: When handling a case, I can encounter a lot of dramatic events, and I have written topics every day. I also quoted a lot of examples from my mother’s colleagues.
In recent years, being a psychiatrist, to a large extent, I also hope that this profession can have many stories to write.

For a simple career, I chose to look at the world from a perspective. For example, the ambulance doctor who sprints in the city every night.
Martin Sikoses, with Nicolas Cage (Nicolas Cage), described the world seen by the doctor in the ambulance.
"Shuttle between Yin and Yang" is also known as "Midnight Express".
Every night Cage drove an ambulance with his colleagues through the familiar neighborhoods where he grew up, listened to the instructions of the 911 alarm station, went to every accident site, rescued the young black man who was shot, lay down in the bar and took drug overdose. People, old people with heart attacks, people who committed suicide and fell from buildings, and little girls who ran away from home and gave birth to children on top of abandoned buildings. . .
Cage is kind and loving. His mother said that he has a priest-like face. Such work is like a destiny to him.
When night falls, he starts to work, and when the sun rises, he should go home and fall asleep. He often watched life drain from his hands but was helpless. He said that he could see the souls of those who he failed to save, walking under the street lights at night, staring into his eyes.
The two-hour video chronicles his three-day life. He hasn't saved a single person for nearly half a month. The soul of the little girl who died because of his unskilled skills, which delayed the opportunity for treatment, appeared on every street corner and intersection every night he went. He lost his sleep, described as haggard.
It is a typical Xikosei film, gloomy, dim, sinful, and God can't do anything about it. He will still touch on the topic of drugs and liberation, but still give the same explanation as the sunshine in engding.
I have always liked Cage's sensitive and melancholy eyes. Eyes pulling both eyebrows. As if cherishing all beings in the world.

Words cannot reach salvation, maybe. Movies may be so pessimistic.
I really want to borrow the brave courage of Lu Xun's ancestors to give myself some comfort. However, yin and yang are so miserable and lonely in the world.

Bringing Out the Dead quotes

  • Frank Pierce: The biggest problem with not driving is whenever there's a patient in the back, you're in the back. The doors close. You're trapped.

  • Frank Pierce: 5 or 6 in the morning is always the worst time for me. Just before dawn. Just when you've been lulled into thinking it might be safe to close your eyes for one minute. That's when I first found Rose. She was on the sidewalk, not breathing.
