Ancient Myth, Ancient Wisdom

Seems that the ancients did't just tell stories for the Hades of it. Some of them actualy held some wisdom and cultural values. The story of Orpheus and Euridice, and their near escape from the underworld, also holds the lesson (to me) that you sometimes just need to let go and stop looking back, or you loose what you already have. To others, it's a variation of the marshmallow test.
