An old Cherokee teaching his grandson
about life:
“A fight is going on inside of me,
he said to the boy. it is a terrible
fight and is between two wolves.
one is evil–he is anger, envy,
sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance,
self-pity, guilt, resentment,
inferiority, lies, false pride,
superiority, and ego.”
He continued: “The other is good–
he is joy, peace,love, hope,
serenity, humility, kindness,
benevolence, empathy, generosity,
truth, compassion, and faith.
The same fight is going on inside
you–and every other person too.
The grandson thought about it
for a minute and then asked his
grandfather, ‘which wolf will win?”
The old Cherokee simply
replied, “The one you feed”.
