Detailed explanation-1: -Midas was a man who wished that everything he touched would turn into gold. However, he had not thought that this wish was not actually a blessing, but a curse. His greed invites us to think and realize the consequences that may lead us to become slaves of our own desires.
Detailed explanation-2: -One of the main themes of the myth of King Midas is greed. Midas wishes for great riches and believes at first that he has come up with a way to achieve that goal. However, his greed ultimately causes him to lose everything of true importance. In the story, gold at first represents wealth and the favor of the gods.
Detailed explanation-3: -The theme of King Midas and the Golden Touch is, “Don’t be greedy, and enjoy what you have in life.” We chose this theme because in the myth, King Midas was greedy and always wanted more gold, but didn’t appreciate his daughter Marigold or anything he already had.
