Curiosity: the Consequences of Digging into Pandora’s Box

“Remember that when you open the box you never know what you are going to find inside, so open with care”

~Pandora’s Box (the Movie)

Curiosity kills the cat and out of all human attributes, it is one adamantine hard to break. Once unleashed, it can deal a massive blow the size of a thousand foot tsunami. Of course, there are also the good kinds  which can reward a person in the form of an A-paper or exam. However, if this certain incident was good, I won’t be here badmouthing Pandora’s wretched box, am I?  I cannot even explain how unsettling I feel right now.
