Two Wolves

An old Cherokee was teaching his grandson about life."A fight is going on inside me," he said to the boy."It is a terrible fight and it 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.

The other is good - he is joy, peace, love, hope,serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy,generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. This same fight is going on inside you - and inside 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."
