Answer: It is important to carefully consider the consequences of our actions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Phaeton was the son of the sun god Helios and when he requested a favor of Helios, the sun god said he could have whatever he wanted. Phaeton requested to ride the Sun chariot which was so challenging that it was said that not even Zeus could ride it.

Helios tried to dissuade Phaeton but he would not relent and on getting his wish, almost brought disaster to the earth but was struck down by Zeus/ Jupiter.

This story therefore shows that we should consider the consequences of our actions before engaging in them as it could lead to serious repercussions.
