works & life of Florence Nightingale

The works and life of Florence Nightingale amazed me. As we can see Nightingale came from aristocratic Victorian family but it doesn't made her as a hindrance to serve others. When we discussed the life of Nightingale, it was the time i knew that according to her it was a God's calling to render care. And no matter what happened it was her destiny. As a nursing student, Nigtingale serves as my "idol".Aside of caring wounded soldiers,she discovered an environmental problem why some soldiers died. It because of lack of sanitation of their surroundings during the war. Florence Nightingale was not only a skilled nurse but as well as a keen observer. One thing that she can't do is to interact with her patients,she only work and work.but It didn't affect my philosophy to idolize Florence Nightingale.
