Pandora's Box

I've just begun reading Redeeming Love By Francine Rivers. The main character, Angel, has learnt through experience to build a wall around her and let no one in. That is, of course, until she meets someone determined to break down that barrier.

It would appear that once you let one thing out of the box, everything else comes tumbling out with it. It's like they're all connected by some invisible, unbreakable string. A Pandora's Box of emotion, if you will. You let your guard down for just a moment, you let someone in on just one little secret of your heart, and then BAM it ALL hits you. It's hit Evelyn and it's hit her hard.

Pandora, can you close this box?

Pandora, can you hold this mess?

Pandora lock it safe and tight.

Pandora for another night.
