The Story Of Two Wolves
An old cherokee is teaching his grandson about life
"A fight is going on inside me," he said to the boy
It is a terrible fight 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, serenity,
humility, kindness, benovolence, empathy,
generosity, truth, compassion and faith
The same fight is going on inside of 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."
What a fantastic little parable! I'll have to remember this to share with my daughter. Thanks for sharing it with us!!!
