Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Though she hastened to close the container, only one thing was left behind – usually translated as Hope, though it could also have the pessimistic meaning of “deceptive expectation". From this story has grown the idiom “to open a Pandora’s box", meaning to do or start something that will cause many unforeseen problems.
Detailed explanation-2: -In the original myth, when Pandora shuts the lid, shocked at what she had unleashed, a small voice cried out from within the jar, asking to be let out. Hope crawls out of the jar, feeble and frail, but her presence calmed and healed. Hope resides now, inside our hearts.
