It is important that one does not fall in the same mistake twice, only an ignorant is labelled as doing something like that, regardless soem of us still find ourselves making mistakes we have made before, even if we have promised ourselves that we would not fall into them again. Why is this so? Is it pure/sheer stupidity? Lack of ability to implement the validity of the erroneous mistakes? Blind ignorance? Overwhelming arrogance?

The reasons are numerous, and each and every person is different. The common banner under which all the cases are carried is highlighted in the fact that humans are prone to mistakes, and sometimes they are not hit hard enough, or punished well enough to realise what the consequences are of their actions. We may temporarily realise that we were wrong in something, yet our arrogance does not allow that to last long, and we tend to brush that aside and continue in our usual steps.

Most of the troubles we get out of are blessings that have been bestowed upon us, and it is our job to keep those blessings clenched in our fists..One of the Holy Imams has said "Make a blesing last by being grateful". As discussed before gratitude is a great element of ones characteristic if they possess it.
