Wonderful ironical story! I am absorbed in reading “necklace” along with the ups and downs of the story, although I have read it at least five times. The necklace has won the popularity around the world, and can be counted as one of the classical short stories in my mind.
The necklace was the clue of the whole story. The heroine Mathilde gains all the admire of the men and the envy of the women at the minister’s ball because of her beauty. The shining necklace contributed to her triumph at the ball. However, Mathilde paid not only a bill of 34,000 Frances but also her golden time in youth for the loss of the necklace! How “expensive” the necklace is!
Women love the jewelries in nature. I like the details when she discovered the superb necklace of diamonds. “Her heart began to beat with an immoderate desire. Her hands trembled as she took it.” Mathilde was lost in the ecstasy of materialism. The necklace is a symbol of Mathilde’s desires of luxurious life.
There is an old saying about the wants of human beings in Chinese: a contented mind is perpetual feast. Life is full of different difficulties and hardship. The attitude decides your fate. If you hate your life, you will fail to find the shining points in your life. Thus, you can’t enjoy your life even if you are rich. The complaint about life just bring you bad mood rather than good mood. On the contrary, even if you live a simple and plain life, you will be surrounded by happiness with a content mind. I don’t mean dreaming for a better life is not correct and should be restricted. I just want to say: When you have one yuan, you should be glad that you have one, instead of thinking I am poor. Cherish what you have had and be graceful at it. We can’t be controlled by our desires. We live for ourselves, not for the money and luxurious material.
By the way, although Mathilde deserves punishing for her vanity and greediness, I feel sympathy for her. It is too cruel for Mathilde to pay for her fault at the cost of her golden time in youth. Perhaps only in this way, the drama will have a sharp reflection on the reality.
