Goodness can never be destroyed “Do you agree? Illustrate with reference to the story the happy Prince
There is no substitute for goodness; goodness the ultimate beauty of life. It is the goodness that makes the world go. The ultimate winner is the good. The paradox about good deeds is incomprehensible! Though it is the good deeds that win hearts and heavenly blessings, however doing them is a very difficult job. All the great men and women who have been role models of perfection for all the mankind till present times, have been men and women who suffered a lot before winning their battle against evil. Not only they won the war, they won a place in the heart of humankind till eternity. Jesus Christ, Abraham Lincoln, James Allen, Mahatma Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther, Albert Einstein, Booker T. Washington, Helen Keller and many more like them really had to struggle a lot for their good deeds. But the world remembers them, and will always remember them for their invaluable contributions to the making of the world a far better place. The deeds of these people have made them immortal. So the truth is: ‘Good deeds never die.’
In the story The Happy Prince, Oscar Wilde beautifully portrays the power of goodness through the characters of Happy Prince and swallow. Happy Prince’s heart was full of compassion and love for the poor and destitute. Swallow also sacrificed accompanying his mates to Egypt, the land of warmth and abundance; but he decided to stay back with the Happy Prince. Both Happy Prince and swallow sacrificed everything for people around and ultimately died. However, God sent His angels and took the swallow and Happy Prince to His heaven as a reward for their goodness. Spurned by men and women, goodness is rewarded by God finally.
Happy Prince is the ultimate symbol of goodness and love for the poor and lonely.
Swallow has sacrificed the companionship of his mates in Egypt.
The story has a tragic end when Happy Prince and Swallow die in the quest of saving people around them.
But God was kind and called both of them to heaven for their good nature.
This shows that goodness is always rewarded in the end.
