An Honest Mistake

Whenever i'm punished and prohibited television, for instance, my attention tends to wander to other things, and I forget my punishment and watch TV after a while. Then, my mother returns to find me ignoring her ban. She then punished me harder, giving me two more days of no TV. Like Orpheus's and Lot's wife's mistakes (in Gen. 19. 26), they forgot their conditions as priviledged beings by which their exceptions would be granted. For this, they simply lost their immunity to natural fate. From this I can reflect that often you are punished for things that you do without meaning to. M personal belief is that this shouldn't be. You should be condemned for your actions which led to and effect you intended to occur.
