Mrs. Mallard's Jealousy

Pity for what
Growing up in this world some people deserve pity while others do not. My mother taught me that pity only weakens the person who shows it, and weaken the person who receives it. Fake personalities fool people, and those same personalities could lead anyone to feel sorry for another person for absolutely no reason at all. Just because a person is ill or mentally challenged, does not mean people should feel pity for them. Although Mrs. Mallard was ill with a heart disease, deep inside her mind she was a selfish person. I feel there is no reason for me to feel sorry for Mrs. Mallard because she is selfish, devious, and very deceiving.
First, Mrs. Mallard showed many signs of self-interest when she heard the news about her husband’s

death. For a person to thoughts as Mrs. Mallard, they should be considered evil and unworthy of any kind of pity. According to Kate Chopin, “She could see in the open square before her house the tops of trees that were all aquiver with the new spring life.” Despite the death of her husband and heart disease that plagued her body, Mrs. Mallard appeared to me more focused on the pros of the situation, which was very self-centered.
Secondly, though some people may not agree with me on this, I feel Mrs. Mallard showed some devious characteristics as she looked out her bedroom window when her sister told her the news of her husband’s death. For example, According to Kate Chopin, “And yet she had loved him—sometimes. Often she had not. What did it matter! What could love, the unsolved mystery, count for in face of this possession of self-assertion which she suddenly recognized as the strongest impulse of her being! On a similar topic, when Mrs. Mallard whispered free to her sleep glorifying her independence revealed just how she really felt about her husband being dead.
