Doctor-Symbol of Healing Touch to Humanity
Who are doctors?What do they basicaly do and why should they receive respect?
Everyone will have a variety of answers for these questions, but for metheterm
Doctor' is always asso ciated with ambivalence. They are Con sidered both boon and
baneto the society. Doctors do the most important duty of saving lives with their
miraculous touch, King Midas would be thought of fondly had he asked for The
healing touch. Empathy and alchemy were synonymous with doctor's duetotheir
ability to persevere more than the common man. However, in ight of recent events
the situation of doctors is akin to the Aftermath of a war. The war against the
corporate system and Coronavirus pandermic leaving devastating casualties to those
who are meant to bethe generals in this war. The Titan Atlas was burdened with
carry the workd on his shoulders forever, with his liver slowly being eaten away by the
eagle. Doctor's can hold the entire system on their broad shoulders, however the
danmageto their heart's and psyche brought about by violen ce, torture.mental atbuse
and outright murder is irreparable 'If not us,Who else?' This statement, their motto
that resonat es and emboldens therm. They could have given up on us but they didn't!,
they are still ready to sacrifice their lives for us. Why don't wejust give up the ego,
pride and start to treat them asthe most precious valuables present on the earth. If
something happens to your family they arethe ones who will save them. But if they
die why do we blame the doctors can't wejust digest the fact that it is ther fate and
that is how their life will end and it is written by God and not the doctors. They just
feature an exquisite quality of god that is healing and curing people with their touch
and treatrment, they are not divineto write a person's fate Death is mortal and no one
can avoid it but have to face it sooner or later. No matter who you are rich or poor,
educated or not, which caste or creed you belong to they are willing to treat you
because it's their duty and you arejust another patient whom they want to save.
Neither they lose hope nor they allow usto lose hope. They listen to us and listene
understand our problems and i oure t o n e p us to face them. But who
to their problerns?? You. I who swer is no one. Doctors try to
save everyone's lives whether it is a human or an animal beca use that's what their
duty is. Doctors are very essential for a country's growth as they help to manage the
infant motality rate and the death rate. Being able to save a life is God's precious gift,
which is only bestowed to a few. Doctors gives usa second chanceto live but they
are not 0mnipotent to can save everyones lives, but they try their one hundred
percent to save a life. In return of their service what do we givethem? Nothing, Is that
what they receive for their hardwork, atleast we can respect the doctors who have
tried their best and have even induced their sleepto save lives. To be a doctor is what
laspire, a pillar, a conerstone, a shoulder to cry on, a ear to listen to pleas of the
flesh, a nd to save people, to continue the existence of man. Doctors truly are the
living symbol of healing touch to the humanity and Isalute them and will always be
thankful to them.
