The 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 .’
