Mythology
Pandora

|
Pandora, a human, was very risky. For example, Pandora gambled by opening the box that Hermes had given her. Her curiosity had gotten the better of her, and she let all evil things seep out of the small package. Yet after watching many evil disasters such as plagues, sorrow, poverty, and crime come out, she quickly chained it shut. Once again, she chanced the container another time hoping that some good would float out from HermeÕs present. Luckily, hope rose from the box and gave the world a chance to have peace. PandoraÕs curiosity did not turn out very well the first time, but if she lost her willingness to chance her luck, there would ultimately be no hope in the world. |
