“We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.” Bring out what it means to you in the present context. (150 W/ 10 M)

Model Answer:

The Quote means that as a child a person do not know many things so it’s easy for them to turn a blind eye almost and forgive a child for not knowing certain things, whereas when ‘adults’ choose not to see the things it’s a tragedy.

This means that when adults do not want to move out if darkness of knowledge gets stick to old prejudices and norms then that’s unfortunate for the society.

Everyone perceives for a good life but place it to a narrow angle of personal gain rather than good to society.

At this place role of education, awareness and maturity comes up. Education enriches peoples’ understanding of themselves and world. It improves the quality of their lives and leads to broad social benefits to individuals and society. Education raises peoples’ productivity and creativity and promotes entrepreneurship and technological advances.

Hence due to lack of education man misses the beauty of life and lives with inherent fear. He never tries to come out of stereotypes.

For example: the social evils as dowry system, child marriage, caste discrimination are present in the society and done by grown up adults. This is unfortunate for the society and act as obstacle in development process.
