When someone we know is headstrong, they are often referred to as Òstubborn as a muleÓ. And this can be anyone who bucks the standard, whether they are right or wrong. WeÕve all known someone who will go right simply because they were told to go left.
For many of us, this applies to our spiritual life as well; weÕve all felt the urge, in a moment of passion, to rebel against what we know and have been taught is right.
