...why it seems like we never learn some stuff? Just keep making the same mistakes over and over. I’ve been thinking about that this morning as I watch this robin keep flying from the fence straight into my kitchen window. He flies and hits the window and falls to the ground, flies to the fence, studies the window, and flies into it again. He’s done it now about twenty times. Stupid bird. Hmmm.....I think I resemble that remark. I wonder why we do that.

Well apparently he sees something attractive to him in your house. Maybe you.......lol
Seriously he has a very small brain so no logical thoughts. As for us with cognitive reasoning that do that it's just called stupidity. If you do the same thing over and over and get the same results and expect something to change we are kind of stupid.

Nope. Never wondered that at all.

A lack of wisdom and understanding.

Isn't this the definition of INSANITY? Y'all should know.
Sometimes I think we've learned more than we think we've learned.
We get upset with ourselves thinking that we keep making the same mistake over and over. But if we're honest about it, at least this time we recognize that we're making the same mistake. Most of the time, the first time we screw up, we don't even think we did anything wrong until after the fact. If we recognize earlier that we're screwing up, at least that's progress.

I never do learn.
Having just returned from Carls Jr I can relate. Teriyaki burger, fries, Coke.

Yes, I agree. Many times it's a general lack of knowledge of the mind of God as revealed in Scripture. Often times it's a lack of knowledge of ourselves. I find that too many people don't take time for reflection and introspection. Thus, history repeats itself for them (me).
