Oskar Schindler

A detailed Summary of Oskar Schindler

Oskar Schindler was a member of the Nazi party during the Holocaust. He had always dreamed about having a big fortune. Finally, his dream came true when he presided a factory in which many Jews worked. In the movie Schindler's list, directed by Steven Spilberg, we can see that during this time, the Jews were seen as animals and they had to work for the Nazis. If they could not worked, they were killed brutally.

Generally, the people considered incapable to work were the people and the elderly. They were taken to concentration camps were their lives ended. When Oskar Schindler got his wealth, he realized that he was not as happy as he tough he would be. After seeing a lot of murders he decided to "buy" as many as many Jews as he could to make them work for him so that they could be saved. He made lists with a lot of names and he paid for each of them. Most of the people in those lists were those who could not work. He took them to labor in his weapon factory, and he told his workers that he was going to be very angry if one of the weapons really worked.

When the war ended and the Jews got their freedom, Schindler lost all his money. Even thought he had lost everything he had always wanted to obtain, he got sad and start

In his book Real Magic, Wayne states that: "Love is giving and it has nothing to do with receiving". He also quotes J. Krishnamurti when he writes that:

To love is the most important thing in life. When you love someone because that person loves you in return, surely that is not love. To love is that extraordinary feeling of affection without asking anything in return. You may be very clever, you may pass all your examinations, get a doctorate and achieve a high position, but if you do not have this sensitivity; this feeling of simple love, your heart would be empty and you would be miserable for the rest of your life (116).

People that give in life receive much more reward s than people who only want to receive.

However, this abundance is not only of material things. He has abundance of love. He keeps telling me that life is the way he had always wish it to be.

Whenever they always understood the material of the class the did not care and spend hours explaining the material to other students. I think it was because my mom always told them to be grateful to God because they had the ability to understand easily and she always showed them that the best way to thank god for those gifts was sharing with others what you know. It is always better to give and not expect to receive anything from anybody. When you give you, get a special feeling that cannot be compared to anything else. By helping, others you win a friend and you show others to give love.

Thinking about Johnson brings a very good friend to my mind. She is the mother of one of my friends, Juan Pedro. Although she has breast cancer, I always see a big simile on her face. In Christmas night, there is always an additional place on her table for a child without parents. She also takes care of parsons with cancer, and tries to cheer them up. Although she has cancer, she and her family are the happiest persons I know. They understand that each time they give, someone smiles and that is the light in their lives, that gives them strength to go on. Magic Johnson have something n common: They have not let the sadness go into their hearts.

George Bush experienced something similar. In the recently opened George bush Library, there is a picture of a cute little girl that called everybody's attention. She was a daughter of Bush. Under the picture, a note narrates her story. She died of leukemia when she was 4 years old, and after her death Bush founded the Leukemia Foundation to give helps to those that are suffering this disease. Most of the times our suffering can be lessened when we do something to help others to diminish their suffering. Giving is again our best medicine.

Teresa Acquaviva is a nurse. She helps sick people and makes them her friends. In an article I recently read, she writes: "My patients have tough me a great deal about their need to give when they feel they have received-about the cycles of giving and receiving" (80).

In his book: Real Magic, Wayne Dyer states: "You acquire and keep nothing for your life. All you can do is to give away in the service of others. It is a domain of purpose that miracles begging to occur in relationships" (114-115).

Giving can also be showed in other ways. For example, my sister and my brother wer
