Answer: It teaches us various life lessons

Step-by-step explanation:

The story of Perseus and Medusa is a story of perseverance, bravery, and dignity. Perseus personifies the length one would go to in order to save the ones you love. Perseus shows the authenticity of his character when he rescues the helpless Andromeda from the Cetus and the attachment to the rock. The bravery and courage of Perseus are shown as he beheads Medusa, as well as his defeat of Phineus and Polydectes.

Hope this helped :)
