Thoughts on the Girls Day In the Battle of the Olympian gods for power over the Titans Pandora was to signify the end of the old state of things concerning the Titans and their chthonic (earthy) qualities towards the new realm of the twelve heavenly deities residents of Olympus mountain peak over the clouds reigned by Zeus. Pandora was manufactured of clay as Hephaestus was commissioned to execute by the king of the Olympians to trick Prometheus into marrying ber and undoing the good he had brought onto earth by stealing the divine fire from Olympus and trusting it to people training them on the multitude of it functions. Prometheus foresaw the trap planned and denied the proposition.However, his brother fell in love with this beauty who had only one flaw of character......Curiosity. On their wedding the Olympian gods brought their gifts to the couple. Zeus presented Pandora with a casket holding all the evil of the world sealed in it with the task to safeguard that it stays sealed. Pandora believing that there was some sort of treasure kept in it unsealed part of the lid to look in. Then the Evil.powers held in there were released in the form of a cloud....panicking Pandora pushed the lid back in place capturing Hope in it. The implication of womans weakness and power is evident in Greek Mythology as it is in the Bible with Evas tasting the forbidden fruit of the apple tree and the expulsion of the Heavenly Kingdom onto the. Human labours on earth. Women as human beings are capable of good and evil in both.cases. It seems that it is their responsibility to undo the unintended bad consequence of the fact that a female in different versions of Genesis disobeyed indulging in their curiosity drive and urge.The burden for women to regulate right and wrong is a moral one and although the notion of punishment is associated with their fate this is not at all restricting. On the contrary it is liberating to allow human beings unite and form a common destiny of Hope and Labouring producing innovation in order to advance in a just society where equality is the norm and education not a privilege of the few. Because every Girl in the world has the power like a Pandora or an Eve to cause change, however, this time reversing the consequence of an urge with a planned design and execution of improvement of the Human Condition in close cooperation with men.
