You have a box with contents that are supposed to be very precious to you, but you have lost the key and cannot open the box without the key. If you try to force the box open in any way, such as smashing it open or picking the lock, the contents of the box will be permanently ruined. If you leave the box closed, obviously all you have is a box worth very little if un-openable. So, what would you do? And NO, it's not an egg.

well this is true about a persons soul. However time is a natural process of discovering the contents of a person or the unknown. I the case of the box it will decary and all that will remaine is tha gift inside. besides if what is inside is gold you got a safe place so you won't lose it. On the other hand if it is so easy to be destroyed how you knowit is worth anything maybe the box is worth more than what is inside since it holds that which is precious.

I will have a go, if you will not think me rude. I have no intention of being such, but when I saw your riddle and read it, I thought back to an Elizabethan prototype, the answer of which was, "the key is to tell her you love her".
