In this movie, the man by the name Chuck Noland was one who really put his time and effort in his job. He worked as a FedEx executive and would have to travel all over the place. In an unfortunate event, he was on a plane that soon went through complications and ended up in the ocean during a storm. He was washed ashore in a deserted island with no trace of human life anywhere near. There were no ways of communication. Noland had to survive on his own on the island. He had to rely on himself to survive on a no man's land. After years, he finally was found and rescued. His life would never be the same. Noland was able to appreciate life and time more than he used to. A man who once only thought about time as it referred to his job and life as it referred to business was able to see it in a completely different view. To be able to do so, he had to be alone on his own with no one but nature. Nature was his bitter-sweet enemy. An enemy who helped him understand life and how one must cherish time with others and not take things for granted.

I agree with your opinion, Dihaney. Noland did not let his wife change his mind to stay home. He still wanted to continue to leave and do his job. Although his non-conformity led him to a challenge, Noland trusted himself to leave the island and go back to his normal life. He changed after he came back from the island. He saw things in a different perspective.

Dihaney i think your opinion is great in a way since the nature he was surrounded in was harsh to which he had to try to survive by realizing his talents he didn't know he just wanted to go home and see his wife. He had many challenges to which made him stronger and see how time was to enjoy and not be rush to do things.

I agree with you, you have a great opinion. Chuck was a very un-transcendentalist person who is preoccupied on time and job. He has no time to spend with his loved one. Its a tragedy that one has to be stranded on an island and have to face many challenges to understand life and to become a transcendentalism man.
