Mistakes

Mistakes

What comes to mind this morning and yesterday is a mistake. Yesterday I went on a website knowing it may be suspect. Ten-twenty minutes later I decided it was a mistake and powered down my laptop. This morning I couldn't login and thought yesterday was then definitely a mistake that would cost me. It ended up my router selection was set to an extension that has been giving me some problems.

It makes me think fear of real or imagined lost is what mistake(s) means. The search definition of mistake(s) seems wrong and say differently:

mis·take /məˈstāk/

noun

  1. an action or judgment that is misguided or wrong.

    "coming here was a mistake"

    verb

  1. be wrong about.

    "because I was inexperienced I mistook the nature of our relationship"

    Definitions from Oxford Languages

Even when I consider other circumstances, a wrong answer on a math test, a left instead of a right, I think mistakes are fear of real or imagined lost. Being wrong is one thing. Making a mistake is another.

Using the words being and making in the last sentence was wrong. What comes to mind this morning and yesterday was a mistake.
