One evening, an elderly Cherokee brave told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside of 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?”
His grandfather simply replied, “THE ONE THAT YOU FEED.”
