Boxed out

It's no secret that I'm a fan of Greek Mythology. As a kid, it's what I would read while my classmates would read Archie Comics or Questor Magazines.

They have a plethora of wonderful stories, and one of my favorite tales is the one of "Pandora's Box."


I was reminded of this story again when a Chinese doctor used the tale as a parallel regarding the current Covid-19 crisis that's affecting the world today. He said that when the box was opened, so many scary and destructive things came out of the box. But at the end of all that, something emerged from the bottom of the box.

And that is hope.

Just like prayers, hope is one of the things we need most of right now.
