subject: Pandora's Box [print this page] My boyfriend, Allen and I are on a tour in Athens. Athens is our favorite city, for we both like its pure colors. Here, we can see the pure white and light blue combining so well that we think the city is out of Zeus' work. What's more, it was Athens that brought Allen and I together. We are both the fans of Greece Myth. In college, we were both the members of the association of Greece Myth. When we talked to each other the first time, we found we had many same opinions about the myth and we also found that we both had the intension of moving to live in Athens. We regarded Athens as the most beautiful city in the world. Later, we began to date. Now we found that it hard to move to Athens, and in order to realize our dreams, we started this trip. Today was my birthday, and Allen did give me a surprised. In the early morning, he took me to the southeast Athens. He pointed the land beneath us and asked me "Do you know where we are standing?" I was very puzzled. "Athens."I said. He smiled at me and whispered in my ears "We are standing in the Temple of Zeus." I was shocked. The most famous Temple of Zeus? The disappeared one wonder? I couldn't say a word and looked into Allen's eyes with astonishment. Allen kept smiling and began to tell a story I was very familiar with. "When Prometheus stole the fire for men, he annoyed Zeus. In order to punish human, Zeus created a human female and her name was Pandora. He sent Pandora to Prometheus' brother as wife. Later, Pandora gave birth to seven boys and Zeus locked the seven boys in a box. In order to see her sons, Pandora opened the box and all of the evils, ills, diseases and toils escaped from the box. But at the bottom of the box, there was still hope." I looked at Allen. I didn't understand why he told me this story. Seeing my confusion, he continued "And this box is called Pandora's Box. And now I also have a Pandora's Box in my hand." He took out a lovely box and got down on one knee. "There is hope in Pandora's Box. And do I have hope in my box?" he opened the box and I saw a ring lying in it. I recognized that it was the Pandora ring I saw last time in a jewelry shop. "Bella, in witness of all gods, will you marry me? Do I have hope in my box?" I looked at him and slowly nodded.
