Matilda always believed her to be born for luxuries and delicacies . Her arrogance of her beauty and charm led to her downfall. Based on your reading of the story write a paragraph on, 'Value of humility in life'.                                                                                                                   

Solution

People who find it hard to accept the truth about their life always crave for things that are unattainable for them. To save their false ego, they intend to make an impression on others and don’t really see the dangers coming along. Ultimately, they fall a prey to those dangers and suffer from miseries. On the other hand, people who resort to humility accept the truth about their share of happiness and riches. They don't have a false ego which can be contented by gratifying their fascinations. They don't run after those things that are unachievable for them. Hence, they are always down to earth and don’t really fail in life. 
Being humble, a man can always observe his true abilities and with careful planning succeeds in achieving his aim.
