Robin Williams

 Robin Williams

Robin Williams was one of the greatest actors and comedians of all times. We learn that from his films that ranged from drama to comedy, Robin Williams was able to create amazing characters. We are able to remember the amazing characters that he gave life to. We are able to understand the importance of laughter and comedy even in these times that are not the best of times. We know that socialism and communism have attempted to prevent true comedy from being created in the past decade or so because laughter and humor can help us persevere amidst times. We learn about the importance of having humility to persevere knowing that we can have gladness of heart and cheerfulness amidst the times we are living in.

We learn that Robin Williams was able to display high energy and quick wit in the 1990s with amazing films that taught the beauty of seeing the positive of life. Robin Williams allowed us to understand not only the importance of humor and gladness while also allowing us to see the goodness of life. In his film about a robot who wants to know how it feels to be human, we see the beauty of being human. Robin Williams' character of a robot who wants to be human helps us know that there is beauty in being human and being distinct and unique. We learn that the robot did not want to be like everyone else nor be a robot. 

We are able to realize that there are good things in being human and the manner that the film described the importance of humanity and authenticity. We learn that at the end of the movie, the robot wanted to actually be human rather than a robot. We learn that this describes the importance of our humanity that describes the need to appreciate the good things. We know that there are other films of post-modernism that try to diminish or critique the importance of being human, while forgetting or ridiculing the beauty of humanity. We are able to distinguish positive movies that help us persevere with positivity, humor, and goodness from negative, discouraging, and false and lying messages.

Patch Adams was another film that describes the importance of humanizing medicine with the portrayal of a real physician that went through hate and envy for being unique and different. We learn that the film Patch Adams described the importance of humility, responsibility, authenticity, and fraternity. Robin Williams was able to describe the importance of being human while taking care of patients. We learn that this describes the manner that human beings are more than clinical cases and diseases and that patients can also improve when there is genuine empathy, care, and kindness. This describes that medicine is not only a science and is actually also an art. Patch Adams described the importance of humor and kindness that is actually medicine. In these times, we know that we can learn so much from Patch Adams and the need to avoid arrogance and unneeded strife.
