Personally I don't really know much about the story about Pandora, but here's what I got from reading it. I think that the possible meanings or meaning behind the story, is that there is evil, betrayal, and curiosity in the world. Even though Zeus told Pandora not to open the box, her curiosity was still poking at her. When Pandora realized she made a mistake by first, opening the box and second, by realizing all the 'bad" before her "hope" could escape from the box. :]
