Pandora's Jar

"Pandora's Jar" or better known as Pandora's box Did you not hear what vile things her curiosity unlocked? Ghostly forms and evils not yet known to mankind. Much like Eve eating from the forbidden fruit that tempestuously hung from a vine in her desire to be wise condemned us all to die. A great deal of sin came in through the eyes let us not look on that which we are in danger of lusting after. She took. It was her own act and deed. we may be tempted to do the wrong thing, but no one can force us; we may be persuaded but no one can cast us down. Pandora with all the damnation and ills her curiosity unlocked found out that not all was evil not all was damnation At the very bottom of the container the last thing that Pandora unleashed was HOPE... We make bad choices and blame others this is who we are but I ask did you not find hope in Pandora's Jar?
