"Stand up straight and don't slouch!"  Many a child has heard these words bellowed from their mother's lips.  We need the perspective of others to help us understand when we are not walking as straight as we could be.  God sends us the Holy Spirit to correct and guide us so that our paths through life can be straight.  Without this assistance, how we see and understand ourselves and the world around us is incomplete.  We will also lack the virtue of fortitude.  It takes courage to listen to the Holy Spirit and devote ourselves to the task of discipleship.  We have to put aside things that the worlds says are necessary and follow a path placed before us by Jesus Christ.  Jesus is asking us to follow Him.  We must consider what we have to do to be free enough to do so.  God needs us to show the world a complete picture of what life is meant to be, correct its vision and tell it to stand up straight!
