=============
For an English report, I wrote about Pandora and Pandora's Box.
For those of you who don't know the story of Pandora, I will tell a short version of it.
Pandora was created by Hephaestus (who was ordered to do so by Zeus). All gods were summoned to give Pandora a gift. Hermes gave her a golden box and told her to never open it.
Hera gave her curiosity. Pandora was then sent to Earth.
For many years, Pandora wondered what was in the golden box. She was very curious. Eventually, she opened it, thinking that the secret to life was in the box, but many foul creatures flew out, some of which were sorrow, disease, and pain.
She slammed the box shut, then peeked inside. There was one creature left which escaped.
This creature was hope.
When I was writing my English essay, I realized that whenever there are hard times or wherever there is foul kind, there will always be hope.
Hope will remain with us no matter how bad things get.
