The moral of the Brothers Grimm fairy tale "The Water of Life" is that humility and kindness are rewarded, while arrogance and cruelty lead to downfall. The story also reinforces the idea that truth and integrity ultimately triumph over deceit and selfishness. Key Moral Lessons Humility vs. Arrogance: The older brothers treat a helpful dwarf with disdain and are consequently punished with a spell that traps them. In contrast, the youngest son is polite and respectful to the dwarf, who then provides him with the guidance and magical items necessary to succeed in his quest. The Power of Kindness: The youngest prince's acts of kindness, not only to the dwarf but also in saving three kingdoms from devastation, are what allow him to overcome obstacles and form alliances that ensure his eventual success and happiness. Consequences of Greed and Betrayal: The older brothers are driven by the selfish desire to inherit the kingdom and betray their younger brother by replacing the Water of Life with seawater. Their greed ultimately leads to their banishment and disgrace, while the youngest brother's selflessness leads to him marrying the princess and inheriting the kingdom. Truth Prevails: Despite the older brothers' successful initial deception, the truth of the youngest son's actions and his brothers' treachery is eventually revealed, restoring justice to the kingdom.
