The Necklace: Reflections and Confeions of Human’s Vanity
“What would have happened if she hadn’t lost that necklace? Who knows? Who knows? How strange and changeful is life!How small a thing is needed to make or ruin us!” This is what impreed me most in “The Necklace” written by Guy de Maupaant.I love the story not only due to the incredibly wonderful ending, but also because of the exquisite description of the weakne of humanity.In his story, Guy de Maupaant creatively reveals Mathilde Loisel's dreams of a wealthy, splendid lifestyle.Mathilde's lifetime of misery and despair is solely caused by her own selfish acts.And her vain obseion all ended up ruining her life.Vanity is defined as exceive pride, especially in your appearance.In Mathilde's case, the “exceive pride” in her looks and charm caused her to feel as if she deserved a higher ranking social cla and the wealth.When she wore the necklace to the party, she wanted to give the illusion that she was something that she was not.Vanity caused Mathilde to fantasize about her life and surroundings-to live in a world of illusion, rather than reality.Her life was affected in a negative way because of her obseion with vanity.It is so sad that she honestly felt succeful the night of the dinner, just because of her looks and her surroundings.What a distorted
view of true happine and fulfillment!Neither an elegant dre or a
beautiful piece of jewelry can make a person who they are.A caring and
loving person has to be unselfish.Mathilde Loisel definitely lacked a
caring and loving personality.The only person she proved to love was
the person she wanted to be.Had Mathilde not spent so much of her life
selfishly, she and Mr.Loisel could have had a lifetime of happine.The
most ironic and interesting piece of the story is the conclusion.Their
lives were ruined for no reason.Had she told Mrs.Forrestier the truth
about the lost necklace, she would have known that the necklace was
just costume jewelry.Actually, it’s a tragedy made by herself, for she
was conquered by the evil of her heart.In pursuit of vanity may lead to the lo of ourselves.Accept who
we are and to be to true to ourselves or else it will contribute to
constant unhappine.Happine or misfortune, it all depends.
