Two Wolves







Two Wolves

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people
He said, "My son, the battle is between two "wolves" inside us all
One is Evil



It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego


The other is Good
It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith"






The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather:


"Which wolf wins?"

The old Cherokee simply replied, "The one you feed"
